(2016): Farmers’ Children Involvement and Safety Gears Usage in Farm Activities in Kwara State, Nigeria. Annals of Child and Youth Studies. 7 (1): 21-33.0795-1663https://uilspace.unilorin.edu.ng/handle/20.500.12484/9444This study investigates the involvement of the teenagers in agricultural activities in Kwara State, Nigeria. It further examines the interest of the children in farming activities, their level of involvement, perceived constraints that limit their involvement and the usage of safety gears in farm activities. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 2 communities each from 4 LGAs in the State while systematic random sampling was employed to select 25% of the total population of farmers’ children from each of the 8 communities sampled. Hence, data were collected from 176 farmers’ children in the study area. Data collected were subjected to statistical analysis such as frequency count, percentage and spearman ranking order. The mean age of the children was found to be 15 years, half of them had between 4-6 years farming experience and majority of them goes to farm between 1-2 days in a week. It was found that the children had high interest in farm activities and they confirmed that their involvement leads to an increase in farm products and livelihood sustainability. An emerging fact unveiled by this research includes the poor awareness of some farm safety gears which resulted in a very poor usage of the safety gears thus recommending the need of including farm health and safety in the curriculum for school children as it could serve as a means of arousing the interest of the children in some of the farm activities they involve in.enAwareness, health and safety, livelihood, povertyFarmers’ Children Involvement and Safety Gears Usage in Farm Activities in Kwara State, NigeriaArticle
