REVIEW OF AGRICULTURAL POLICIES IN NIGERIA:

Nigerian Government efforts in agricultural development over the past three decades have failed to improve the country's economy. A review of the sector depicts a gloomy picture, hence require a reading book on agricultural policy. Performance is reflected in environmental degradation, mounting food deficits, and decline in both gross domestic product and export earnings, while retail food prices and import bills have been increasing in Nigeria. This book reviews the Nigeria's agricultural synthesis or framework and action plans of Government designed to achieve overall agricultural growth and development. It will serve as a good reading material for policy makers, entrepreneurs, students and researchers among others.
