• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Taiga and Ameji examined the impact and relationship between agricultural exports and economic growth in Nigeria for the period of 1981 to 2017. This was guided by two research questions and objectives. Taiga and Ameji employed the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) technique and Johansen Co-integration test to achieve the objectives and hypotheses of the study. From the results, Taiga and Ameji revealed that agricultural exports had a positive and significant relationship on economic growth, therefore provided evidence that agricultural sector contributes significantly to GDP growth in Nigeria. However, based on the low contribution of agricultural exports as recorded from the analysis, Taiga and Ameji recommends that government should provide funds to acquire sophisticated farm tools and increase the country's budgetary allocation to the agricultural sector in a consistent manner, among others were proffered.
