Abstract

In the northern states, rural banditry as a result of the farmer-herder conflict has become a threat, so rampant that the state apparatus has begun to intervene. The safety of life and property has received priority attention from the governments of various countries in the world, both democratic and military governments. It is generally believed that development cannot progress in an atmosphere of excessive conflict, violence, anxiety, fear and destruction of property. There is no denying the fact that the absence of security or insecurity can have a negative impact on the overall well-being of rural farmers. The purpose of this study is to investigate the challenges faced by rural farmers towards sustainable democracy and the role of rural farmers in overcoming rural bandits due to the spread of conflicts that have affected national security and sustainable democracy. These measures include military action, vigilante groups, security intelligence, and a suspension of illegal mining activities in the northern state. The recommendations include: Governments should enhance rural security through the use of digital technologies such as sophisticated surveillance and detection tools and neglected security management initiatives in rural areas should be developed and enriched to reduce democratic illiteracy in rural areas.

Abstract

The impact of National Fadama Development Project (NFDP) on onion yield, resource used and farm income in some selected Kebbi State local government areas was examined. Purposive selection was used to select five local government areas for the study. Random sampling technique to select respondents and structured questionnaire and interview schedules were administered to collect data. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, x2 test, farm budgeting and production function analysis. The results show that, majority of the respondents acquired their fadama land through inheritance, members obtained high yields than non-members, variable costs dominated product costs, members earned more profit than non-members. All the estimated co-efficients were positive. There was over utilization of all inputs except fixed capital, it is profitable to produce in the study area, major constraints include inadequate inputs, credit and storage facilities. Agricultural production and farmer’s income can be increase if the existing challenges are addressed.
