Climate change affects men and women differently, specifically in income-related to activities. In the case of market gardening, cropping techniques, input costs and quantities used vary according to sex. This work analyzes economic justice in this context of unequal access to resources by gender. The regression analysis on data collected from actors in the market gardening sector showed that women have lower incomes than men because their production related to climate change are too low. Women cannot do all activities and transform them into production costs. The benefits are low and slow down their buying and making provision.
