Women's Role in Food Production and Nutrition: Implications for Their Quality of Life
1988
Holmboe-Ottesen, Gerd | Mascarenhas, Ophelia | Wandel, Margareta
The authors review the literature on the subject of how women's work along the food chain may affect their nutritional status and other aspects of their lives. They point out the discrimination against women in food and work allocation: women often work harder and have greater energy expenditures than men but get less food. Bennett makes this point in her article too, and McGuire touches on it as well.
