ABSTRACT
One of the goals of Nigeria
Agricultural Development policy is to achieve for the nation enough food
sufficient for the consumption and utterly reduce the rate of dependency on
imported foods, with the view of ensuring adequate and affordable food for all.
This research work is aimed at evaluating food sufficiency situation in Nigeria
looking at the intervals between 1991-2016. This research reveals that there is
a shortfall in locally produced food. Taking into account the total population
of Nigeria to 3.2% whereas the ratio of domestically produced food has been
reduced to 1% which is an indication that the demand for food is far reached
and higher than the supply for such food.some of the identifiable factor
responsible for this include,inconsistency in government policies, corruption,
environmental degradation and unsuitable agricultural produce, therefore this
research reveals that Nigeria solely depends to a great extent on imported
food. Finally this study equally reveals various government policies,
institutions and legal framework on achieving food sufficiency in Nigeria.This
research work adopted analytical and comparative approaches in the analysis of
relevant materials to the research contained in Nigeria and other international
legislations, decided cases, journals, articles, newspapers and magazines
including other relevant internet sources. The researches equally recommend
some vital point which will be a panacea to achieving food sufficiency in
Nigeria.
