| Abstract: | ABSTRACT The study sought to determine the Optimal Farm Plan for Alley Cropping System of Agroforestry Management in Niger State of Nigeria. A random sampling technique was used to select 42 respondents for the survey. Data were collected through schedule interview using structured questionnaires. Data were analyzed using linear programming model. The result of the analysis shows that only Citrus lemon enterprise should be carried out on a 0.69ha land in the area, which will yield an optimal income of N63.474.32. Capital was the most limiting resource in the area. It was therefore recommended that farmers in the area should divert their resources to the production of Citrus lemon only. |
