“…The results of this study closely follow [25] in the area that improved level of credit given to farmers enhances the productivity level of the agricultural sector and thus lead to an increase in the level of food security in Nigeria as seen in ARDL result. This study is also in line with [26] where it was believed that access to agricultural credit to farmers increases their production capacity which in turn lead to food security, also aggress with [27] where it was pointed out that there exists a significant positive relationship between food security and the availability of agricultural credit to farmers. His study noted that one percent increase in the availability of agricultural credit to farmers amounted to a 2.5% and increase in agricultural productivity in Nigeria, this, of course, follows the apriori expectations.…”

Background:It is a known fact that the efficiency of credit facility positively contributes to production base of a sector, especially the Nigerian agricultural sector which is recognised as the heartbeat of the economy by employing over 70% of the country’s labour force; this forms the motivation for this study.Objective:This study examined the potential of agricultural credit facilities in terms of commercial bank credit to agriculture and agricultural credit guarantee scheme fund (ACGSF) and their corresponding interest rates to farmers towards increasing agricultural production as the pathway to food security in Nigeria.Method:The study employed the Autoregressive Distribution Lag (ARDL) econometric approach on the time series data sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin, Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the World Development Indicators (WDI) for the period 1990-2016.Result:The result from ARDL showed that commercial banks credits and ACGSF increased food security by 8.12% and 0.002% respectively, while population reduces food security by 0.001%.Conclusion:The study concluded that population should be controlled through family planning and adequate financing of the ACFSF by the government and monitor commercial banks leading interest rates on credit facilities.

“…The Wald test for APT is statistically insignificant at a 0.05 significance level (p > 0.745), implying no statistically significant influence of agricultural production technology practices on agribusiness transformation. These results are comparable to Ameh et al (2017) findings that agricultural production technologies (machines), agricultural credit and gross domestic product were found not to be statistically significant among smallholder farmers in Nigeria.…”

“…Various scholars analysed empirically agricultural production technologies, postharvest storage, marketing, and agro-processing practices (Ameh et al, 2017;Naminse & Zhuang, 2018;Ansah et al, 2018;Mignouna et al, 2017). It is evident that farming technologies in Africa, i.e., cultivation tools such as tractors and power tillers or animal draught, are still primitive and require backbreaking manual work (ACET, 2017).…”

The study examined the influence of entrepreneurship practices on agribusiness transformation among agribusiness owners in the Mbeya region. Specifically, it examined the effect of agricultural production technologies on postharvest storage and assessed the effect of marketing practices and agro-processing practices on agribusiness transformation. It explored the effect of vertical function on agribusiness transformation on grains. A cross-sectional study design consisting of both qualitative and quantitative data was applied. A sample of 254 agribusiness owners involved in grain production was purposively selected. The study used interviews and structured questionnaires to collect primary data. The reliability and validity test generated an estimated Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.889, which indicates good internal consistency. Multiple Ordinal Logistic Regression was used to determine the influence of entrepreneurship practices on agribusiness transformation. The finding shows that there is insignificant influence (p > 0.05) of agricultural production technology practices on agribusiness transformation, whereas postharvest storage, marketing and agro-processing practices indicate significant influence on agribusiness transformation (P<0.05). However, the moderation role of vertical function reveals significant negative prediction (-1.193) on agribusiness transformation. Correlation analysis reveals a significant positive, strong correlation between marketing practices and total agribusiness transformation. Government and key actors in the agribusiness value chain are advised to formulate and implement appropriate policies, programs, and strategies to enhance appropriate entrepreneurship practices necessary for agribusiness transformation

“…Terdapat sumber kredit formal dan informal, di mana kredit formal dapat diperoleh dari lembaga keuangan seperti bank dan koperasi, sedangkan kredit informal dapat diperoleh dari teman, kerabat, atau pedagang. Kredit pertanian terbagi menjadi kredit jangka pendek dan kredit jangka panjang, dan keduanya memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap produktivitas petani karena adanya input yang tepat waktu dan memadai (Ojiya, 2017). program kredit sangat berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan penyerapan tenaga kerja dalam memenuhi kebutuhan pangan, terutama karena jumlah populasi yang terus bertambah.…”

Agriculture is an important sector in a country's economy because it makes a major contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Indonesia. According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) for 2021 the agricultural sector contributed 13.70% to GDP. Farmers in Indonesia are mostly located in rural areas and have less access, so the government must provide support such as providing capital by making agricultural credit policies to support the sustainability of agricultural businesses and improve the welfare of farmers. The agricultural credit policy is one of the government's efforts to facilitate farmers' access to capital to develop their agricultural businesses. This research 'The Influence of Agricultural Credit on the Welfare of Farmers in Indonesia' uses a literature review approach by collecting data or sources related to a particular topic from various sources, such as journals, books, the internet and other library sources. The results of this summary, analysis, and synthesis are then written descriptively in the form of scientific articles. The Influence of Agricultural Credit on Farmer Welfare in Indonesia aims to determine agricultural credit policies, farmer welfare, the application of agricultural credit and the influence of agricultural credit.
