Abstract

In Pakistan, women constitute about 67% of the agricultural labor force, engaged in agriculture and its sub-sectors to support their families. Because of the patriarchal society, women have been discriminated against in acquiring fundamental rights and decision-making in numerous aspects of life, including various farm and livestock-related activities. No or very limited studies have been conducted regarding women farmers' empowerment, especially in the Ghotki, Naushahro Feroz, and Badin districts of Sindh. Hence, this qualitative study was carried out in districts Ghotki, Naushahro Feroz, and Badin, Sindh to determine women farmers' perceptions about their empowerment regarding decision-making in agriculture activities. Thirty IDIs and nine FGDs were conducted through purposive sampling, and the collected data were analyzed through thematic analyses. This study reveals that women farmers perform various agricultural and livestock tasks for about 6 to 8 hours a day with their man folks. Illiteracy and poverty were the main reasons behind their engagement in the sector, and they worked as unpaid labour with their men. Women farmers have limited decision-making authority in various crop activities, the sale and purchase of agricultural goods, livestock, and its by-products, due to cultural constraints, they have no access to the agricultural market. This study suggests that education, professional training, and property ownership rights may be provided to women farmers to grow economically and be productive for future generations, society, and the country.

Abstract

This research presents an empirical examination of innovation capacity as a source of incentive for economic growth. This work introduces a novel framework by incorporating availability of latest technology, quality of management schools, intellectual property protection and intensity of local competition as the important antecedents of innovation capacity. Furthermore, it is also proposed that innovation capacity results in the outcome of economic growth of a country. Based on the previous literature five hypotheses were posed. The study utilized secondary data for 151 countries from year 2012 t0 2016 extracted from Global Information Technology Reports (GITR). The GITR is a special project of the World Economic Forum (WEF) that is published annually. Descriptive statistics and Fixed Effect Model were used to examine the hypothesized relationships and generate results. Analyses of data concluded that the entire hypotheses were approved. As use of latest technology, quality management schools, protection of intellectual property and healthy local competition enhances the level of national innovation capacity which leads to higher economic growth. These findings have important implications for research and practice as a country can contribute in economic growth by enhancing its innovation capacity.
