This report aims to help companies close productivity and efficiency gaps in agribusiness value chains, particularly those in smallholder production. At each stage—(1) input provision and use; (2) production; (3) post-harvest processing and storage; and (4) transportation, marketing, and sales—it outlines key challenges that women face, highlights business benefits, and offers potential private sector solutions. Companies can use this report as a resource to understand how gender dynamics impact their businesses, identify steps they can take to address constraints, and ultimately strengthen their supply chain.
