Bulletin 4387 - Women In Agriculture In Western Australia 1999, Agriculture Western Australia Jan 1999

Bulletin 4387 - Women In Agriculture In Western Australia 1999, Agriculture Western Australia

Bulletins 4000 -

WESTERN Australian women in agriculture contribute huge economic, social and community benefits to industry, to the rural sector, and to the State overall. That this contribution is not fully acknowledged, is perhaps due to the lack of clear data; many economic or social measures do not disaggregate data by gender, despite women's and men's roles being very different. Other measures are based on outdated assumptions about how work is done, and by whom.
