This paper analyzes the socio-economic characteristics of households that affect husbands and wives' contributions to decisions regarding the use of income from crop and livestock sales in Kenya. Using a sample of 276 households, we apply a multinomial logit model to assess factors affecting decision-making. Results show that husbands make most decisions concerning agriculture, while wives mainly decide on daily household expenditure. Higher education levels were found to increase women's involvement in decision-making on income use. Group membership had a positive effect on joint decision-making on income use. The study recommends improving women's access to education, which will improve their access to productive resources, hence their decision-making power. Providing incentives for members of agricultural groups can provide avenues for learning. Gender-transformative approaches that empower women and sensitize men to allow space for women to engage in decision-making, can have an impact in improving the decision-making capacity of women in households.

肯尼亚农户夫妻对收入使用决策的贡献分析:多项logit方法

本文分析了影响丈夫和妻子对肯尼亚农作物和牲畜销售收入使用决策的贡献的家庭的社会经济特征。我们使用276个家庭的样本,应用多项logit模型来评估影响决策的因素。结果表明,丈夫对农业的决定最多,而妻子主要决定家庭的日常开支。人们发现,高等教育水平提高了妇女对使用收入的决策的参与。团体成员资格对联合使用收入的决策产生积极影响。该研究建议改善妇女获得教育的机会,这将增加妇女获得生产资源的机会,从而提高其决策能力。为农业团体的成员提供激励可以提供学习的途径。赋予妇女权力和使男子敏感的性别转变方法,可以为妇女提供参与决策的空间,这可能会提高妇女在家庭中的决策能力。
