This study investigates the gender implications of agricultural sector reform in Kenya. The author focuses on smallholder tea production with the aim of pinpointing the factors that influence the adoption of tea among male and female farmers, assessing female farmers’ perceptions of the changes in living standards over the research period, and suggesting appropriate policy reforms to ensure that women’s interests are taken into account in the design of agricultural reforms.
