The authors find that female landlords have tenants who are older, own less oxen, are more related, and under longer-term contracts.

The primary focus is on Africa while making some comparisons with Asia. Climate risk and change have serious implications for household vulnerability and food security.

The study draws on a unique household panel, covering the period up to eight years after the implementation of the reform.
