    Beyond 'Women’s Traits': Analyzing Gender and Social Differences for Inclusive Crop Varietal Design
    Tufan, Hale Ann (Virginia Tech, 2022-10-13)
    Gender is integral to agricultural innovation. Yet, gender relations, social inclusion, power, and agency often remain an afterthought in agricultural innovation processes. Using crop improvement examples, this talk critically explores gender in agricultural innovation and design, including frameworks and approaches for inclusive design, innovative tools and methods that integrate gender research, and how intrahousehold dynamics shape crop trait preferences, varietal adoption and seed systems.
