El presente artículo producto de un análisis documental, tiene como objetivo revisar la situación de la mujer rural colombiana respecto a la tenencia de tierra. Se muestra la existencia histórica de una gran desigualdad en su distribución, y cómo ha sido el germen de múltiples conflictos armados que se han presentado en Colombia desde el siglo XX y que, a pesar de diversos intentos por mitigarla, a través de reformas agrarias, persisten, evidenciando el fracaso de dichas iniciativas. También se muestra que la mujer rural tiene un acceso menor que los hombres a la tierra, producto de factores culturales y dinámicas patriarcales, que hacen de ellas un sector social altamente vulnerable. A partir del análisis, se concluyó que en Colombia persiste un gran desnivel en la repartición de tierra, comprobado por medio de un coeficiente Gini de .89; que muestra la existencia de una clara diferencia en la tenencia de este bien según género, ya que los hombres la poseen en mayor cantidad que las mujeres; que la informalidad en su posesión continúa siendo alta, situación que afecta en mayor medida a las mujeres, y dificulta su acceso a créditos y asistencia técnica, lo que no les ayuda a salir de la pobreza.
The following article, as the final product of a documentary analysis, reviews the situation of rural women in Colombia regarding land tenure. It shows the historical existence of great inequality in the land distribution, and how this has been the root of multiple armed conflicts occurred in Colombia since the twentieth century. Despite the various attempts to mitigate this inequality it persists, which puts in evidence failed attempts at an agrarian reform. It is also shown that rural women have less access to land than men, due to the cultural factors and patriarchal dynamics, which makes them a highly vulnerable social group. From the analysis it is concluded that there is a high unevenness of land distribution, verified by a Gini coefficient of .89; which shows the existence of is a clear difference in land tenure between genders since men have a higher quantity of land in their possession; besides, there is still a high level informality in the land tenure, a condition that affects women to a great extent, resulting on a difficulty that hinders their access to credits and technical assistance, which does not help them to get out of poverty.
