Abstract: ATIENZA, MARVELLE R. and IKUTA, SIIIIVIITHA ROSE B. Gender-Based Diffe rentiation Among Coffee Growers in Selected Areas of Cavite. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Economics and Bachelor of Science in Business Management. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, May 2017. Adviser: Dr. Nelia C. Camino. A study was conducted to determine the gender-based differentiation among coffee growers in selected areas of Cavite. Specifically, it aimed to: describe the socio-economic characteristics of coffee growers and their households; determine the gender role differences in terms of reproductive, productive, community activities, and hazard exposure of the coffee growers and their households; determine the access and control over resources and benefits among coffee growers and their households-, and determine the time allocation of coffee growers and their households to the different activities. This is a descriptive cross sectional study. The primary data used in the study were obtained through personal interviews with the 380 coffee growers in selected areas of Cavite, namely: Amadeo, Alfonso, Silang, General Emilio Aguinaldo and Mender The result of the study shows that the gender-based set of traditional expectation for both men and women still exist. Women tend to shoulder most of the reproductive activities and men predominantly performed productive activities. In community activities, men dominated women in agricultural related activities such as agricultural cooperatives, farmer's field school, community development programs and environmental activities while women mostly attended the financial and entrepreneurial programs. Men were more exposed to hazards compared to women since they performed the bulk of the works in the farm. On the other hand, women were more exposed to biological hazard since they are most likely to attend to sick members of the family, mend healthcare programs, and still some of them were barangay healthcare workers which expose them to viruses. Both men and women had access and control over -:sources and benefits. Men dominated women in access and control of farm-based resources while women mainly had access and control over home-based resources. Men predominantly had access and control over income generating resources while women had access and control over credit. Women allocated most of their time in reproductive activities while men devoted most of their time in productive activities.
