What contributions can feminist economies make to agricultural economics?

The guest speaker, Professor Cheryl Doss, Professor of Economics at Tufts University, delved into the potential synergy between feminist economics and agricultural economics, exploring the valuable insights and contributions that feminist economic perspectives can offer to the agricultural sector.

She expounded on the key elements of feminist economics, which include factors such as the importance of considering power relations, recognizing that markets and all economic relationships are socially constructed, the importance of provisioning, and being open to a range of methodological approaches in agricultural economics practice.
