In Africa, women receive 7 percent of agricultural extension services and less than 10 percent of credit offered to small-scale farm holders. Moreover, inasmuch as educational curricula tend to exclude topics with particular relevance to women (such as nutrition, sanitation, hygiene, gender-specific tools, and management), gender analysis and targeted initiatives must be incorporated in agricultural education, research, and extension services (Davis and others, 2007). The ability of farmers to innovate, learn from one another and adapt to change largely depends on their capacity to access and process information including through information and communications technology.
