How does gender affect the adoption of agricultural innovations?
Summary. Men and women in Ghana adopt modern maize varieties and chemical fertilizer at different rates because women have less access to complementary inputs like land, labor, and extension services. The research shows that closing the adoption gap does not require changing agricultural research systems, but rather improving women's access to these critical resources through targeted policy measures.
