Women farmers’ vulnerability due to low access to resources, reduced soil fertility, and the inability of farmers to obtain added value in the market causes poverty upwards among women farmers. Empowerment is an essential concern to improve their quality of life. This study aims to analyse the process of empowering women in organic farming models and the Participatory Guarantee System for organic standards. The study was conducted by taking the case of women farmers community in Claket Village, Mojokerto Regency, East Java Province. The qualitative research approach with data collection techniques through interviews with 16 informants. The results showed that the farmer empowerment was carried out in two processes. Firstly, by changing conventional agricultural cultivation behavior into organic cultivation. Secondly, by establishing a Participatory Guarantee System for organic that can increase the autonomy of women farmers both in terms of cultivation and involvement in the agricultural chain system. Both empowerment processes can be carried out for women farmers despite they have low educational background, limited land, multiple roles in the household, or in older ages. In addition, patience, the nature of togetherness, and the desire to learn are the keys to the success of organic farming businesses in women farmers group.

“…The more you know about computers, the more you'll think you know about them, which applies to all kinds of different application areas. It has also been suggested that noteworthy occurrences have the potential to shift or undermine the legitimacy of pre-existing institutional systems (Nath & Athinuwat, 2021). Despite this, relatively little systematic attention has been made to how different organizations respond to the variety of logic and their incompatibility (Ghasemi et al, 2021).…”

In today's pricey economic environment, women make up a sizable share of the state's potential labor, promoting economic growth for themselves and the state. However, many women in Pakistan face various challenges and may need more commercial support for women's empowerment. Hence, the current study analyzes the elements influencing women's empowerment in Pakistan. The deductive technique was used in this study, and data on women's empowerment were acquired using a well-developed questionnaire. A total of 161 responses were gathered from women operating the business in Pakistan's Punjab Province (Table 1). The study found that Perceived Access Capital (PCC) and Women Empowerment (WE) have a substantial and positive influence (B=.479, P=.000), pro-innovative climate (PIC), and innovative behavior (IB) have a positive effect (B=.533, P=.000), related knowledge to experience (RKE) has a significant effect on Women Empowerment (WE) (B=.344, P=.000), and Women Empowerment (WE) has a positive effect on innovative behavior (IB) (B=.188, P=.037) (Table 5). The results also showed that innovation behavior (IB) is not moderated. Empowering women mediates innovative behavior, perceived access to financing, and commercial backing.

Participatory Guarantee Systems (PGS) are community-based certification schemes guaranteeing sustainable and high-quality crop production. These systems can be particularly beneficial for smallholder farmers, including women who need more resources to obtain expensive third-party certifications such as organic or fair-trade. However, research on the implementation of PGS for women smallholder farmers is scarce. This study examines the implementation of Participatory Guarantee Systems in small-scale agriculture conducted by women farmers. The study was conducted using qualitative methods, which included interviews with 16 participants. The women farmer communities in Claket Village, Mojokerto Regency, Indonesia, were used as a case study. The study found that implementing PGS requires the assistance of NGOs to identify stakeholders such as farming communities, consumers, and other interested parties in promoting organic farming. Secondly, the community establishes a set of guidelines and procedures for crop production to facilitate the certification process. Thirdly, regular inspections and evaluations are necessary to ensure the crops meet the established criteria. The critical hurdle to implementing PGS in Indonesia is the limited capacity of small-scale farmers, especially women, to document their activities for certification. Thus, intensive training and capacity building are needed to enhance their production techniques and documentation abilities to meet the established criteria. Finally, implementing PGS is a collective action that is crucial in building trust among stakeholders and ensuring that the certification process is credible and transparent.
