Abstract:
With gender equality becoming a key feature of the global food security agenda, international organizations have produced a rich body of knowledge on gender. This research argues that such gender expertise generates political effects through identity constructions, problem definitions and rationalities. Our analysis reveals two gendered constructions articulated in these documents–the productive female farmer and the caring woman food securer. We demonstrate that problem definitions, solutions, and rationalities associated with these identity constructions are contradictory.
