Answer 1

In horticultural societies, the source of most of women's subsistence work is the farm work. Women are the ones responsible for planting the crops. They are also responsible for taking care of the crops and harvesting it afterwards. Men are the ones responsible for clearing the land and leaving the rest of the work to women.
