dc.description.abstractThe study focuses on gender access to agricultural production in Oke-Ero Local Government Area, Kwara State, Nigeria. A total of 325 male and 307 female farmers were randomly sampled with structured questionnaire administration. Using descriptive statistics, the study observes that majority of the female farmers had access to farmland but very few had total control over such lands while male farmers own their farmland, which they can use as collateral to obtain loan from the bank. Both male and female farmers do not have enough access to agro-extension services but the latter group is more affected. The paper recommends that in planning for agricultural development, enough production resources should be provided to both gender particularly female farmers to improve agricultural production in Nigeria. Also conditions for obtaining agricultural loan should be reviewed to encourage female farmers.en_US
