This International Women’s Day, Haller highlights the vital role of female farmers in combating poverty and food insecurity. Women perform up to 60% of agricultural labor in parts of Africa, yet their contributions remain overlooked. Discover how Haller empowers women with training, resources, and support to boost yields, improve livelihoods, and break cycles of inequality.

Smallholder farmers play an increasingly important role in food safety. 80% of food in developing regions is grown by smallholders, and with food demand expected to grow by more than 70% by 2050, there is a clear need to install sustainable food systems that work for these communities.

Despite their outsized importance in the global food system, female farmers face a growing number of challenges. Not only do these obstacles negatively impact individual female smallholders, they fundamentally undermine global efforts to address hunger and poverty.
