Exploration of gender dynamics in the production and marketing of forage technologies in Kenya por Njiru, Nelly, Galiè, Alessandra, Wanyoike, Francis N., Tawanda, M., Boonabaana, B., Bisikwa, J., Njuguna-Mungai, Esther, Jones, Christopher S., Baltenweck, Isabelle

“…Complex yet important pathways for women’s and men’s empowerment exist through the sale of planting materials, hay bales, and an increased volume of milk obtained when cows are fed with Brachiaria. We conclude that cooperative membership for men should be supported, while at the same time gender norms that reduce women’s engagement with cooperatives, and their access to and control over land, should be challenged.…”

Maternal behavioural determinants and livestock ownership are associated with animal source food consumption among young children during fasting in rural Ethiopia por Kim, Sunny S., Nguyen, Phuong Hong, Tran, Lan Mai, Abebe, Yewelsew, Asrat, Yonas, Tharaney, Manisha, Menon, Purnima

“…Most of the association between knowledge, beliefs and social norms, and ASF consumption was explained by pathways operating through ASF availability (approximately 9, 12, and 8 pp higher availability, respectively), which in turn were associated with higher consumption. Cow ownership was directly and indirectly associated with ASF consumption, whereas having chickens was indirectly associated with consumption via the availability pathway. …”
