| Summary: | This study calls attention to a fundamental question: who decides what varieties are grown, and whose knowledge shapes that decision? A gender-intentional approach is fundamental to building seed systems that are resilient and responsive to the complex realities of farming households. By re-centering women in seed systems as decision-makers and leaders, we can move towards agricultural systems that are not only productive but also more equitable and ecologically rooted. The future of sustainable agriculture depends on making gender, not just an add-on, but a starting point for seed system transformation.
