According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ (FAO) work on Gender ‘Empowering Rural Women, Powering Agriculture’, the gender gap between men and women creates elevated costs to the agriculture industry, society, economy as well as women themselves. The Global Forum on Agricultural Research (GFAR)’s Gender in Agriculture Partnership (GAP) calls for action to promote gender equity and empower women in agriculture.

With this in mind we feel its important to do our part and have a strong commitment to help give opportunity to Women where we can.
