This chapter provides an overview of the importance of masculinity (re)construction to the work of agricultural equity and discusses how contemporary capitalist agriculture has engaged a hegemonic agricultural masculinity in order to normalise a certain type of land use and land decision-maker to maintain global agriculture “progress” and expansion. The chapter also discusses how agribusiness strategically rebrands this masculinity to maintain and expand the reach of capitalist agriculture.
