This paper looks into the differences between female-headed and male-headed households in accessing productive resources. It is based on a comparison of the conditions existing in two woredas in central Ethiopia which exhibit differences in ecology and farming system and farm technology. In the interest of getting in-depth information case studies-supplemented a standard survey data. The findings suggest that except in rare cases female-headed households have less access to resources and have lower incomes than male-headed households.
