MARKETING OF FERTILIZER IN KADUNA-NORTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA: THE ROLE OF FARMERS’ CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES
ABSTRACT
Fertilizers are very important farm inputs. They are absolutely necessary for bringing about the expected change and transformation that is required for Nigeria’s Agricultural Growth and Development. Despite the growing domestic demand for Fertilizers, the supply has continued to decline over the years coupled with a corresponding increase
in the price of the commodity. The increase in the price of the commodity in recent times have exceeded 8000%. Fertilizers are the life wire of almost every kind of crop production activity, especially in the; Sahel, Sudan and
Guinea Savannah of Nigeria. According to A.T. Mosher, It is one of the vital ammenities that are required to transform the Agrarian sector of any economy. It is imminent that a peasant Nigerian farmer who is the major producer of the bulk of the food that is consumed by the entire Nigerian populace can not afford to purchase fertilizers because of the sky rocketting annual increase in the price of the commodity. The main focus of this study was on the marketing and distribution problems at a micro level. To be more specific, at the Kaduna North local
Government Area, with a special emphasis on the role of the farmers’ cooperative society. A total of (50) farmers’ co-operative societies were randomly selected from the (89) farmers’ co-operative societies within the local government
Area. Detailed structured questionnaires with open and closed ended questions were administered to the individual farmers and some selected members of staff of the Local Government department. The Central measure of Location tendency and percentages were used to analyse all the information gathered and the collated data. Mean, Median, Mode, Percentages and time series analysis were utilized in the collation and interpretation of the data collected.
