Book Synopsis Weather variability and extreme shocks in Africa: Are female or male farmers more affected? by : Nico, Gianluigi
Book excerpt: Agriculture in Africa has been traditionally seen as an important employment provider, supporting agriculture-based livelihoods of the vast majority of the African population, (James, 2014; World Bank, 2011) and absorbing the largest share of the employed population. Data suggest that almost 224 million people aged 15 and above are directly engaged in agriculture in Africa (ILO, 2021), corresponding to nearly half of the total employed population in the continent and absorbing ΒΌ of global agricultural employment.
