dc.description.abstractDespite the Federal land administration proclamation, traditional cultural practices have engulfed women’s land ownership rights in the study survey area. According to findings, female-headed households own much less land, livestock and other important strategic resources compared to male-headed households, with negative impact on women farmers’ pulse production. As women own less livestock, they are considered weak farmers; consequently women get little attention during land allocation and receive few extension services directed towards their needs. Despite immense contributions to their livelihoods and society, women’s productive, domestic and community related activities are undervalued, which limits food security and commercialization of the agricultural sector.en
