The study was designed to describe the socio-economic characteristics of Fadama women's user groups (WUGs) in Osun State and assess factors influencing the resources accessibility among Fadama Women User Groups. A two-stage sampling procedure was used to select 90 respondents from nine Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the state. Data collected were described using frequency counts and percentages, mean and standard deviation while regression was used to test the relationship between variables. Results showed that majority (58.9%) of the respondents were married with 65% having either primary or secondary education. Fadama facilitators, friends and radio were the major sources of information to the respondents. Majority of the respondents had access to productive resources. However, none of the socio-economic characteristics influence the resources accessibility among the women. The study concludes that women in Fadama User Groups had access to productive resources. It is therefore recommends that Fadama stakeholders should intensify efforts to bring in more women into group with a view to reducing poverty among Nigeria women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
