Abstract
The study evaluateD the effect of FADAMA III community infrastructure on farm profitability of members of FADAMA User Groups FUGs in Anambra state, Nigeria. Specifically, the study determined the effect of rural markets on farm profitability of FUG members effect of rural borehole on farm profitability of FUG members, and effect of processing facilities on farm profitability of FUG members.
