| Summary: | The focus of the study was on women's access to land. The primary
objective was to examine factors associated with women's access to
the agricultural resource. Access was operationalised into two areas, i.e.
access to land as owners and as farm workers.
The study was conducted in two villages in the district of Kuala
Langat, Selangor. Interviews with 143 household spouses from the two
villages were conducted. In-depth interviews on women's life history
were carried out with selected women. The analysis comprised two
components. The first component was on hypothesis analysis and answering
research questions related to women's access to land as owners. This
component used quantitative tools such as t-test, chi-square test and regression
analyses. Tobit and Multiple Regression analyses were conducted
to find the relationship between the selected independent variables and
the land size owned by women and men as the dependent variables. |
