• Description:
   This research describes the influence that farm size has on gendered involvement in  crop cultivation and decision making about what crops to grow where, irrigation and  marketing among small and medium-sized farmers in Moldova. Findings reveal that  overall crop cultivation is characterized by gendered patterns that vary according to  farm size. Overall men have much more input into decision making than do women  but women on small farms have more input in decisions than do the women on  medium-sized farms. However, women on medium-sized farms are more involved in  the diverse range of cultivation activities in terms of labour.
