Recent rural development policies aim at stimulating a new paradigm of rural development, with a new role for agricultural activities. A completely renewed set of opportunities is available for farms that, if well exploited, could be a relevant tool to improve agricultural activity. The aim of our paper is to describe gender differences in the access to policies for agriculture and rural development. The analysis permits us to investigate the farms’ strategies on a gender base and to qualify the new frontiers for agricultural activities, by discriminating women’s and men’s contribution.

Abstract
Recent rural development policies aim at stimulating a new paradigm of rural development, with a new role for agricultural activities. A completely renewed set of opportunities is available for farms that, if well exploited, could be a relevant tool to improve agricultural activity. The aim of our paper is to describe gender differences in the access to policies for agriculture and rural development. The analysis permits us to investigate the farms’ strategies on a gender base and to qualify the new frontiers for agricultural activities, by discriminating women’s and men’s contribution.File in questo prodotto:
