The research strongly aligns with SDG 5 (Gender Equality) through its focus on women's empowerment in agricultural decision-making and economic participation. The study also connects to SDG 1 (No Poverty) by demonstrating how agricultural innovations and water management have contributed to poverty reduction and economic opportunities for marginalized groups, particularly women. The circular economy model described, where women engage in rice production while men focus on vegetables, creates sustainable livelihoods that support both gender equality and poverty alleviation goals. Finally, the article strongly connects to SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) through its focus on water management innovations and infrastructure development.
