This paper studies womens empowerment in northern Mozambique as it relates to agriculture, considering in particular the factors that lead to womens managing the plots that they nominally control. Women control about 30 percent of the plots in the data but manage only about 70 percent of those plots. Using a unique panel dataset, the study finds that women are more likely to manage plots when households have historically had access to off-farm labor, typically completed by men.
