Nasarawa State University Kcffi,https://keffi.nsuk.edu.ng/handle/20.500.14448/289777ie study employed the use of the stochastic frontier production function to analyze the technical efficiency of cassava fanners in Wamba Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, Nigeria. A multi stage random sampling technique was used to select 150 cassava farmers from the five districts of the study area. The Data was analyzed using descriptive, inferential statistical techniques and stochastic frontier production function. The empirical estimates showed that an average cassava farmer in the study area had technical efficiency score of 0.879. This implies that cassava farmers in the study area are technically efficient. Non physical factors served as determinants of technical efficiency, they were Age, Education, Family size. Farming experience. Access to credit. Access to cooperative and Extension contact and were however not found to be significant. Majority of cassava farmers in the study area had no access to credit, no contact with extension agents, non formal education which affected the farmers ’ technical efficiency. It was recommended that government should provide adequate information on credit availability to rural farmers, extension agents should be posted to rural areas and farmers should be sensitized to patronize them and improve production of cassava in the study area, the state and the country as a wholeenCassava, Wamba, Technical Efficiency.Article
