The publication is aimed at making available to the general public some basic facts about Agriculture in Niger State.

The Government and people of Niger State are particularly grateful for the support of the NBS, World Bank, UNDP and other Development Partner in transforming the Apex Statistical Agency of the state (Niger State Bureau of Statistics) to a modern day Statistical outfit capable of meeting modern day statistical challenges.
