This article explores intra‐household decision‐making in smallholder farmers' innovation uptake and use of outputs within a bargaining framework. Research was conducted in selected locations representing contrasting economic, social and agroclimatic environments in Uganda using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods (including a survey of 531 farmers). Decision‐making in innovation processes was highly gendered and shaped by intra‐household allocation of production assets as well as social norms. The findings highlight the male capture of decision‐making regarding innovation uptake and use of outputs, especially for income‐generating crops, and that this can both reflect and reinforce gender inequalities in asset ownership.

农业创新过程中的性别家庭内部决策动态：资产、规范和议价能力

本文探讨了在谈判框架内小农创新吸收和使用产出的家庭内部决策。使用定性和定量方法（包括对 531 名农民的调查）在代表乌干达对比鲜明的经济、社会和农业气候环境的选定地点进行了研究。创新过程中的决策高度性别化，并受到家庭内部生产资产分配和社会规范的影响。研究结果强调了男性对有关创新吸收和使用产出的决策的捕获，特别是对于创收作物，这既可以反映并加强资产所有权方面的性别不平等。
