This review consistently finds that women have much slower observed rates of adoption of a wide range of technologies than men; and these are mainly due to differentiated access to complementary inputs and services. There are limited studies that looked at upstream stages including priority-setting and innovation processes, in which women continue to be underrepresented.}, url = {http://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/126747}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.22004/ag.econ.126747}, }
