In Kenya, Contagious Caprine Pleuropneumonia (CCPP) is a highly infectious disease of goats with a mortality rate of more than 70%. A vaccine for CCPP is available but difficult to access by rural women. This study examines the gaps and barriers that prevent women smallholder farmers from effectively accessing and adopting CCPP vaccination for their animals in the Machakos district of Kenya.application/pdfenWOMEN FARMERSSMALLHOLDERSLIVESTOCKGOATSCONTAGIOUS CAPRINE PLEUROPNEUMONIAVACCINESVALUE CHAINWOMEN IN AGRICULTUREGENDER DISCRIMINATIONVETERINARY MEDICINERURAL ECONOMYACCESS TO INFORMATIONDISEASE CONTROLKENYASOUTH OF SAHARAJournal Article (peer-reviewed)
