    The purpose of this research is to analyze how climate change affects the agricultural practices of Cañari women in the communities of Quilloac and the Tambo canton, in the province of Cañar. It is based on the recognition that indigenous Cañari women play a central role in the transmission of agricultural knowledge, although they have historically been invisible. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach, theoretically grounded in feminist political ecology and Marxist feminism, which allowed us to understand the interrelationship between gender, class, territory, and the climate crisis. The methodology applied used semi-structured interviews, collective mapping, and direct observation. The results show that climate change has modified agricultural cycles, farming methods, and work schedules, directly affecting the work performed by women. However, they have developed adaptation and resistance strategies that reshape their knowledge, their ties to the land, and their daily practices. These actions are not only social but also political responses, which question, but are also framed within, the capitalist model.
