Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) 2002 and updated 2012 were used to map the most suitable site for waste disposal in Owo LGA. The result indicates that sites were found within the study area. The most suitable sites in the study area are located at 200metre buffer to surface water and 100metre to major and minor roads. The selected areas have 2500metres buffer zone distance from urban areas (built up areas). The study purposes acceptable landfill sites for solid waste disposal in the study area.

    Journal of Horticulture and Forestry Vol. 3(7), pp. 222-225, July 2011 Available online http://www.academicjournals.org/jhf ISSN 2006-9782 ©2011 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Households’ exploitation of non-wood forest products (NWFPs) in Okitipupa Local Government Area of Ondo State, Nigeria A. S. Oyekale* and D. O. Ajesi Department of Agricultural Economics, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. Accepted 17 May, 2011 Exploitation of NWFPs poses serious threat to sustainable forest management in Nigeria. This study analyzed the driving forces for exploiting forest products in Okitipupa Local Government area of Ondo State, Nigeria. Data were obtained through structured questionnaires that were randomly administered to farmers. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis and Tobit regression. Results show that monetary worth of monthly collections of NWFPs is N12,167.50 and fuel wood has the highest average monthly collection worth N 3,576.50. The Tobit regression shows that community variable sex, age of house heads number of dependant farming as primary occupation, having alternative means of meeting the needs for NWFPs and dependants income show statistical significance (p<0.05). It was recommended that efforts to reduce degradation of NWFPs must consider development of research into provision of alternatives to some of the resources, reduction in demographic pressure and keen consideration of some cultural gender factors. Key words: Degradation, forest products, exploitation, Ondo state. INTRODUCTION Nigerian forest is renewable natural resource that provides definition of NWFP follows the classification given by timber for domestic and industrial uses, food for man and FAO (1999) where these are referred to as all biological wild animals, protective covers for environmental materials (other than wood) which are extracted from resources such as soil and recreational facilities for tourist natural forests for human use as well as services derived attraction (Popoola, 1992; Nathaniel and Adebobola, from forests and allied land uses.
