Gendered processes of agricultural innovation in the Northern uplands of Vietnam

Nozomi Kawarazuka, Gordon Prain · 2019 · International Journal of Gender and Entrepreneurship

Summary. Ethnic minority women in Vietnam's Northern uplands develop agricultural innovations through informal networks and family structures rather than formal institutions. Their innovations are incremental, small-scale, and linked to entrepreneurship, strengthening their household position and economy. Understanding these gendered innovation processes reveals that women's approaches differ fundamentally from men's, requiring policymakers to redesign agricultural support programs to fit women's actual practices and preferences rather than imposing standardized packages.
