Abstract:

The study specifically investigated farm size efficiency differentials of bio-fortified cassava production in Nigeria. Data were collected through a cross-sectional survey of bio-fortified cassava producers in Nigeria. The estimated coefficients of the parameters of production variables for small scale bio-fortified cassava farm size (land, herbicide and fertilizer) played a major role in bio-fortified cassava production on a small scale in Nigeria. For the medium and large scale bio-fortified cassava farm size, production variables (land, labor and fertilizer) and (land, labor, herbicide and

Agricultural value chains in Nigeria are expanding rapidly to ensure national food security. Of the diverse locally made cassava products, pupuru (fermented cassava flour) is one of the most consumed in Ondo state. The constraint of high perishability necessitates additional processing and bio-fortification as the solution. Value-added bio-fortified pupuru hygienically packaged now adorns store shelves against the traditional pupuru sold in the open market.
