1) Women's participation in agroforestry in Africa is generally lower than men's, especially in activities considered men's domains like woodlot production. However, women are highly involved in fodder production and indigenous fruit collection.
2) While both men and women can manage agroforestry technologies, women often have smaller land plots and fewer trees. They also receive less extension information than men.
