Women play a central role in agriculture worldwide. Yet their needs, ideas, and ambitions too often go unheard. To mark the International Year of the Woman Farmer 2026 (#IYWF2026), ISF launched “Farmer Wants More”, a campaign that lets women farmers – supported by seed companies and ISF partner organizations – tell their stories.
Since the campaign launch, we’ve shared 66 posts covering around 30 women farmers’ stories across our channels. Each story was developed with a partner close to the farmers involved: ISF member companies and their local partners, CGIAR research centers, and the African Seed Trade Association (AFSTA). The campaign has so far registered an impressive 14 percent engagement rate (engagements/reach) and over 7k post link clicks, organically boosted by companies and partners re-sharing the posts. While LinkedIn posts brought the widest reach, Facebook and Instagram brought in the most conversation, with people reacting, commenting and sharing the stories most often.
Each story echoes a reality: women farmers want more. They want access to quality seed, knowledge, markets and a voice in the decisions that affect their work. When seed companies and breeders work alongside them, the results are visible in their fields and their communities.
The International Year of the Woman Farmer isn’t over and neither is our campaign. Between now and December, we’ll share new stories and finish the year with a round-up of all the voices we’ve featured…
