2015 International Day of Rural Women

Globally, over 50% of all grown food is produced by rural women farmers. At Propcom Mai-karfi, we recognize the vital role played by women in food production, in cumulative household incomes, and in ensuring that their families are cared for. As a result, Propcom Mai-karfi is stimulating changes in markets which favor or are dominated by women like; soybean; poultry; shea; and rice parboiling, as well as integrating them within markets in which they are formerly underrepresented.

It is the International Day of Rural Women today! A big thank you to all the women toiling to feed the world and their families.
