The influence of socioeconomic and other household characteristics on the productivity of smallholder farmers supplying cassava to the major commercial starch processors in Nigeria were examined. A multi-stage random sampling technique was used to select 96 farmers working in clusters in selected...
The linkages between cassava production and the key agronomic and climatic factors were investigated with a view to estimating the supply response for cassava in Nigeria. Time series data from FAO and the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, 1961–2008, were used for the study. Data we...
The study was specifically undertaken to appraise farmers' perception to cassava bacterial blight disease that ravages cassava in most cassava growing regions of sub-Saharan Africa and Asia.

A field study was conducted to determine the rate of genetic improvement in grain and fodder yields and associated agronomic and physiological changes of determinate and semideterminate cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] genotypes developed in the Nigerian Sudan savannas in 1974 to 2004. Resul...
Ex ante evaluation of agricultural research for development projects has become important in recent years for priority setting, ex post impact assessment and learning about generalizability to other populations and contexts. We apply farm household and random utility modeling to baseline survey ...
