#Women are powerful agents of change, but without secure land rights they do not have the guarantees, opportunity, or incentive to invest in their land. If women had the same access to credit, technology, training and inputs as men, they can increase production on their farms by 20-30 percent, lifting up to 150 million people out of poverty.
