VIDAL, D.L.. Typological diversity of feminine rural work in the Brazilian semi-arid. Arch. zootec. [online]. 2011, vol.60, n.232, pp.1149-1160. ISSN 1885-4494.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0004-05922011000400030.

To better understand the role of women in the agricultural wealth composition, this study aimed to characterize the feminine work diversity in the productive units farming management situated in Brazilian semi-arid rural communities. For such, a typology with 75 resident women in six rural communities of the Baixo Trici District, Ceará State, Brazil was performed. This typology was based on the feminine work incidence associated or not to another familiar or wage-earning work. Seven groups of women had been gotten through the cluster analysis, and they had reflected the feminine farming work diversity in these disfavored rural communities, particularly in the predominant allocation of the women work force for fowl and swine meat and fowl eggs, vegetables gardenorchad and in familiar unit administrative works.
