“…At 10% level, Table 4 shows that credit access significantly affects the performance of total stock of input supply in the non-farm household enterprises using sufficient as base outcome. The results suggest that the higher the credit access, the greater the tendency that non-farm household enterprises would perform for insufficient total stock of input supply instead of sufficient total stock of input supply as also confirmed in the study by Mapunda et al (2018). Thus, credit access influences the performance of total stock of input supply of non-farm household enterprise.…”

Inadequate availability of credit access is one of the major problems facing household enterprises in developing countries, especially Nigeria. Despite various government interventions aimed at solving this problem, it is still perceived that credit access is a serious challenge facing these enterprises in Nigeria. Hence, this study examined the impact of credit access on the performance of total stock of input supply of non-farm household enterprises in Nigeria. Unlike the bulk of existing studies, we employed multinomial logit regression and used the 2018 General Household Survey data. The stylised facts from the data revealed that non-farm household enterprises in urban areas have greater access to credit than their counterparts in rural areas. Interestingly, the findings indicate that even though a large chunk of the non-farm household enterprises in our sample face the challenge of access to credit, credit access nonetheless impacts significantly and positively on total stock of input supply of non-farm household enterprise in Nigeria. Among others, we recommended that credits to non-farm household enterprises should be adequately monitored not only to enhance the performance of these enterprises but also to ensure that the funds are not diverted to other uses.

“…The outcome shows that these factors do not exert significant influence on access to credit by non-agricultural household enterprises. These finding is in line with the studies like Mapunda et al (2018), and , which agreed that spending on salaries, rent and location of enterprises are not statistically significant. Table 4 is another estimation of binary logistic regression disaggregated into urban and rural household.…”

Purpose:The study examines impact of employment on access to credit by non-agricultural household enterprises in Nigeria using binary logistic regression approach. Design/Methodology/Approach: The data for the study was drawn from General Household Survey (Wave 4) published by the National Bureau of Statistics in 2019. Apart from the core variables studied, other variables considered in the study include: spending on other business costs, spending on rent, spending on transport, spending on salaries, and location of the enterprise. Findings: The findings indicate that employment is positive and significantly influence access to credit by non-agricultural enterprises in Nigeria. Interestingly, the influence of employment on access to credit by household non-agricultural enterprises is consistent even when the estimation is disaggregated into rural and urban enterprises. When disaggregated into rural and urban enterprises also revealed that spending on other business is negative and significantly influence access to credit by urban non-agricultural household enterprises while spending on transport is positive and significantly influence access to credit by rural non-agricultural household enterprises. Other factors like location, spending on rent, and salaries exert insignificant for access to credit.

The warehouse receipt system (WRS) in agriculture has been considered a solid tool to support the agricultural sector. In comparison to other nations, Turkey has initiated the adoption of WRS recently. Therefore, the attitudes, abilities, and perceptions of farmers regarding current practices are of great importance. This study identified the factors influencing farmers’ intention to use WRS and categorized them based on these factors in Turkey. The conceptual framework of the study is constructed on the Theory of Planned Behavior, the Technology Acceptance Model, perceived cost, innovation openness, and organizational factors. Explanatory factor analyses were utilized to reveal reliability and sampling adequacy of the factors, and a cluster analysis was conducted to categorize the farmers based on the factors. The results showed that 38.40% of the farmers exhibited a high tendency towards using WRS in the future. These individuals demonstrated notably positive attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral ability, and they also held favorable perceptions towards WRS (perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived cost). This study could assist intermediaries, industrialists, and decision-makers in improving the system and developing action plans.
