Profitability of Vegetable Farming Under Rainy- and Dry-Season Production in Southwestern Nigeria
ABSTRACT This study focused on land management practices as they affect profitability of vegetable producers in the dry and rainy seasons in Osun State, Nigeria. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and enterprise budget analysis. Producers were mostly smallholders owning 0.5 to 2 ha of land. Yield was higher during the rainy season, while higher total revenue was obtained under dry-season conditions. Dry-season production proved to be more efficient. To fully exploit their lands during the dry season, vegetable farmers should be provided with irrigation and marketing incentives.
