Agriculture plays a less sizeable role within the regional food economy than in the past, 40% of the value added in the agro-food sector is no longer dependant on agriculture. Increasing urbanisation and human mobility are influencing the evolution of food diets, social habits and the profile of agricultural labour, including in rural areas, and the post-harvest segments of the food value chains are expanding in line with socioeconomic change (Allen and Heinrigs, 2016). An analysis of how men's roles are evolving would be an equally critical and timely effort and would paint a comprehensive picture of how resilience and food and nutrition security can best be achieved.
