Experts on indigenous communities in Kalimantan, such as George N. Appell (1926-2020) and Vinson H Sutlive, both from Borneo Research Council, highlighted that among Dayak Iban communities, women has relatively equal roles compared with men's, especially on agricultural work. In a paper entitled "Iban Studies: Their Contributions to Social Theory and the Ethnography of Other Borneo Societies (2001)", Appell quoted Sutlive's work published in 1972 and 1991. "In the past and at present, a principal portion of farm-work (among Iban community) has fallen to women, " wrote Sutlive in 1972 as quoted by Appell. In 1991, the conditions were still the same, as written by Sutlive: "Iban men and women have relatively equal access to resources; to opportunities to succeed as farmers; and to the privilege of participating in longhouse decision-making meetings, including annual meetings to decide on farm sites." Among Iban community living in Sungai Utik, West Kalimantan, the womens role in agriculture can be highlighted as well, at least until 2012. With a word or another, the women pictured on this series of photographs said that they actively take a lead in agricultural work.
