Collinearity (or multicollinearity) is the undesirable situation where the correlations among the independent variables are strong. Multicollinearity misleadingly inflates the standard errors and results in incorrect conclusions about relationships between dependent and predictor variables. Thus, it makes some variables statistically insignificant while they should be otherwise significant. It is like

The role of credit in agricultural economy cannot be overemphasized. Its constraints hamper productivity and income of rural smallholder farmers. In this study, cross-sectional data from 150 smallholder cassava farming households were used to examine credit accessibility and poverty among cassava farmers in Ogun state, Nigeria. The data were analyzed

An important process for stabilizing high protein agricultural products is through fermentation which uses specific microorganisms. Costs involved in the supply of such organisms can be a major component of the cost of the fermented product. Soy milk is currently produced in abundance in Nigeria and part of it is

Crosses were made between eight cotton genotypes in a full diallel crossing pattern in 2005/2006 at the Research Farm of the School of Agriculture and Agricultural Technology, Yola. The resulting 56 F1 hybrids along with their parents were evaluated in the cropping season of 2007 in Yola, Adamawa State and
