dc.description.abstractPoverty-stricken rural women are the custodians of gathering, utilisation and preservation of underexploited indigenous leaf and fruit vegetables. Most studies on leafy vegetables have focused on routinely cultivated species. The objective of this Nigerian-Canadian Vegetable (NICANVEG) project is to increase food security and economic empowerment of resource-poor rural women farmers of Nigeria through the utilisation, cultivation, processing and preservation of underutilised vegetable species. A major focus is training rural women on production, processing, utilisation and marketing of underutilised vegetables for food security and financial empowerment.en
