The study examines adoption level of improved goat production practices by women farmers in Ogun State, Nigeria using Ikenne and Ijebu-Ode zones of the Ogun State Agricultural Development Project (OGADEP) as case studies. A total of 150 respondents were selected for the study using multi-stage random sampling technique. Information was obtained from the women through structured interview schedule. Data were analyzed with the use of frequency counts and percentages while correlation coefficient (r) was used to test the stated hypothesis. Results of data analysis revealed that most of the women were still in active ages of between 40 and 59 years (62%) with 91% of them married and majority (71%) educated. While 6 percent of the women did not adopt improved practices, 40.67% showed low adoption; 33.33% - moderate adoption level and 20% demonstrated high adoption level. Result of hypothesis testing indicated significant relationship between level of adoption and marital status (r = 10.21) and cosmopoliteness(r = 0.30) at 0.05 level of significance and critical level of 0.19. |
