अगर महिला किसानों को पुरुषों के बराबर संसाधन मिलें, तो खेती की पैदावार 20-30% तक बढ़ सकती है। इससे दुनिया भर में भुखमरी 15% तक कम हो सकती है। महिला किसान सिर्फ़ परिवारों का पेट ही नहीं भरतीं, बल्कि ग्रामीण समुदायों को मज़बूत बनाती हैं और देश की अर्थव्यवस्था में भी बड़ा योगदान देती हैं।

वर्ल्ड इकोनॉमिक फोरम ने महिला-पुरुष समानता को लेकर 156 देशों की रिपोर्ट जारी की है। जिसमें भारत 28 पायदान फिसलकर 140वें स्थान पर पहुंच गया है। रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक कोरोना महामारी की वजह से असमानता बढ़ी है। यही वजह है कि अब महिला-पुरुषों के बीच समानता आने में करीब 135.6 साल लग जाएंगे, जो पिछले साल तक 99.5 साल थे। यानि सालभर में यह अंतर करीब 36 साल बढ़ा है।
