Explanation

Nigerian agriculture varies by region. South: tree crops (cocoa, palm oil, rubber) in forest zones. Middle Belt: grains, tubers. North: groundnuts, cotton, millet, sorghum in savanna.

Challenges: poor infrastructure, limited mechanization, climate change, land tenure issues, post-harvest losses, inadequate storage and processing facilities.

Subsistence farming dominates, but commercial agriculture is growing. Government initiatives aim to reduce food imports and diversify beyond oil dependency.
