This paper analyses the livelihoods of the Borana pastoral communities of Southern Oromiya in Ethiopia.

There is a common view and belief that women are the ones that do the farming in Africa while the men do not work much.

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