Gender equality should mean getting more men to do the strenuous work. Need introduction of nurseries, basic food and employment laws for women. Instead we are sucked into this SDG snowball of taking even more women away as the family carer into servitude for making profit: with standards so appalling and chemical dousing of both man and microbe to a point of succumbing to premature diseases, fertility and foetal problems for pitiful money which is earned to spend on “dawa” from big pharma. Ring a ring a roses….. 🥲

How to establish gender equality in agriculture? Fundamentally, there are two types of agriculture in the world, monoculture and polyculture. 1. Monoculture (chemical input based, anti-biodiversity agriculture) causes centralisation and mechanisation in agriculture, which eliminates women's role in agriculture. 2. Polyculture (traditional, biodiversity based agriculture) creates employment and job opportunity for women, thereby reduces gender inequality. FAO and IFAD should promote research and development on polyculture, to improve the productivity and profitability in polyculture.

What does gender equality has to do with poverty ????!! Infact when gender equality is given (of vwoman with western values), vwoman whom are hypergamous in nature (getting attracted with men whom are more than them) no longer wants to get married coz they don’t get attracted to the equivalent male of their lifestyle (because of equality and western values that shows woman should like a successful man-but how can a man be more successful if equality is given ?) Infact it shys them away from their feminine nurturer role to build a family by now expecting the man to do house chores (in the name of EQUALITY RIGHTS) and yet expect the man to drive them out for dinner and trips despite they know how to drive a car oddly All these horrible behaviour in vwoman of western values on the name of EQUALITY, has made them to choose not to get married and has plagued counties with western values to suffer huge rate of marriage decline and population by child birth decline= causing an end /decline to many generations of family Equality is a western propaganda that teaches vwoman to serve the economic that is controlled by elites man but not serve their family . No point being successful and narcissist when there is no future generations

Gender equality is a key factor in fighting hunger, malnutrition and food insecurity in general. Implementation of Gender Policies in the Agricultural sector in particular need to be emphasized by the government especially in the under-developed continents like Africa.
