Popis: Assessment of farmer’s perception on soil quality deteriorating and crop yield reduction has been carried out in the Sudan Savannah(SS)of Kebbi State Nigeria with specific objective to provide a report on soil quality deterioration and crop yield reduction using IPCC climate change impact report on Africa by 2020. The assessment was made using face-to-face-verbal-interview. The interview was divided into four rounds according to four questions. Absolutely, it is reported that some farmers have considered climate change impact as one of the major agricultural problems that will take part in deteriorating soil quality and yield reduction by 30%, and some by 50%, while few of these farmers have the opinion of 70% by 2020. Generally, the fact that the climate change impact will cause yield reduction for up to 50% in Africa by 2020 remained an open debate issue for most farmers in the SS.
