| Abstract: | The paper examined the economic analysis of small ruminant production in Bosso Local Government Area of Niger State. Data were collected from a total of 90 respondents using purposive random sampling technique in 2007. Inferential statistics, farm budgeting and regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data. Result of the allocative efficiency index showed that feed cost, labour, other inputs and fixed cost were underutilized. Thus, farmers should increase the use of these resources efficiently in order to enhance profit This can be achieved by obtaining loans from agricultural banks and by encouraging farmers in the study area to form cooperative. |
