Caring for corn and beans: reassessing subsistence agriculture and climate change.

Abstract To move beyond a material understanding of women's relationship to climate change, this chapter explores a care work framework that explicitly includes women's participation in subsistence agriculture, while expanding climate change frameworks to consider care work. The case of Honduras is used in the current study to reflect on the need for and opportunities of this framework. Through this case study, subsistence agriculture is reconceptualized as a vital contribution to household and community agriculture. This is done by broadening the definition of care work, and by positioning agriculture within a corporeal-material-socio-cultural framework that reconnects the various 'food domains'.
