The study focused on profitability and constraints of ginger production by women ginger farmers in Samaru Zone of Kaduna Agricultural Development Project (KADP), Kaduna State, Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 205 women ginger farmers. Primary data were collected from the selected 205 women ginger farmers with the aid of a structured questionnaire. The analytical tools used to analyze the data were descriptive statistics, gross margin analysis and likert scale. Gross Margin (GM) was 4,405,692/ha and average rate of return on investment was 4.8, showing that for every 1 invested in ginger production in study area, a profit of 3.8 kobo was made. The major constraints identified were high cost of production (4.42), lack of credit (4.3), inadequate improved technology (4.2), inadequate inputs (4.0), poor extension services (3.9) and problem of transportation (3.9). This study recommended that government and other non-governmental organizations give women ginger farmers the best needed help in form of incentives and innovation in ginger production since it is a profitable business.
