\begin{abstract}
\normalsize{
The available evidences show that women receive lower prices than male farmers in agricultural product markets (Banerjee et al, 2014; Brenton et al., 2013). In the cotext of developed countries, in Italy, female owned firms not only face access to the financial markets but also pay more interest rates once they got access to the market(Alesina et al., 2013). In addition, a cross country analysis of business environment and enterprise performance in the European Union and other emerging countries in Eastern Europe and Asia found a similar result (Muravyev et al., 2009). The literature on market discrimination in agricultural markets in developing countries is very scant (Banerjee et al, 2014). In addition, the studies undertaken so far are in the context of cultures that women have their own separate plots within a household. This has a significant implication not only on intrahousehold input allocation across households but also on market outcomes. On the other hand, in countries such as Ethiopia there is no distinction between women's and men's plots within households. There might not be any resource reallocation problem because households manage their farms based on traditional division of labour within the household. Depending on the situation, the person who will be in charge of agricultural marketing may differ. In such contexts, it is unclear who receives better proceeds from crop sale or if the market discriminates based on gender.  This study will atempt to study the existence of gender differential in agricultural output markets using unique household survey data from Ethiopia. Specifically, we will address the existence of differences in proceeds from sale of agricultural commodities between women and men who are in charge of agricultural marketing. We will use econometric models which addresses selectivity problems on market participation.}
