| Abstract: | ABSTRACT Using crop yield, profitability and resource use efficiency as yard sticks, this paper examines the productivity level of fadama land in Sokoto State. A field survey conducted in the Kandoli Shela fadama in Dundaye District of Sokoto State revealed that most fanners obtained profits from fadama land cultivation although crop yields were generally low. In addition, most resources were inefficiently utilised, which suggests that higher yields and profits could be obtained through reallocation of resources. |
