An Econometric Analysis Of Waterleaf (Talinum Trianqulare W.) Production In Uyo Urban, Akwa Ibom State
ABSTRACT
The limited
quality of food calories available to some of the world's people is a great
concern to many parts of the under developed and developing countries (11TA,
1993). This crisis has been building up for almost three decades with hunger
and a food production gap recognized as two of its interrelated components
(Eicher, 1982). Nigeria, for instance, has been classified as a country with
severe child malnutrition (UNICEF, 1996). This is because many households are
unable to provide adequate nutritious food for all family members (World Bank,
1997). Thus, vegetable production has become very popular in Nigeria in
recognition of its economic and nutritional importance in the diet of the
people. For instance, the average growth of vegetable produced between 1989 and
1993 was 14.0% compared to 8.3% for maize, 6.4% for cassava and 1.8% for
oilpalm (see table 4 1.0) Table 1.0 Average Growth Rate of major Agricultural commodities
in Nigeria (1989— 1993)
