Integrating a gender perspective in the right to food 2016, para. 48
Paragraph
Paragraph text
The food security of women in farming households and landless labourers is dependent on the adequacy of their wages. Rural labour markets are highly gender-segregated and women are more likely to work in low- wage sectors, with inadequate social protection, in temporary, seasonal and casual work, and in activities that require relatively unskilled labour.
