dc.description.abstractThe study analyzes the usage of child labour among crop farmers in Kwara North rural communities of Kwara State. It identified the socioeconomic characteristics of the respondents; farming activities done by children in the study area; the level of child labour usage in the study area; the factors influencing child labour usage in the study area; and the possible hazards encountered by children in the study area. A four-stage sampling technique was adopted in selecting ninety (90) rural households. A well-structured questionnaire was the instrument for data collection. Findings reveal that socioeconomic characteristics (Income, year of formal education, and contact with extension agents) have direct or inverse relationship with level of usage of child labour. The study therefore recommends that Governmental, non-governmental organization, literate individuals and corporate bodies should help alleviate the sufferings of low income rural communities by providing them with social security schemes, economic opportunities and activities that would engage the children in self-development, empowerment and discovery.
