1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In Yala Local Government Area of Cross River State, farming is an art. Farming is the only source of survival and the people have used farming for all the developmental projects seen in their locality. The people are so entwined in farming that no matter how highly placed a person is in government circle, he must still own farms and think farming Essient (2010) said that the Yala market which was the greatest foods market in the former Eastern Region of Nigeria is still one of the greatest food markets in the south south zone. Indeed, Yala is the greatest producer of yam, cassava and rice in Cross River State.

With the process from their farm produce, they have been able to develop their immediate environment. Equally, they have been able to use the farm produce to sponsor their daughters and sons to schools, resulting in their higher positions in government. Farming may be looked as a mean occupation by narrow minded people, but with what the Yala people are doing with their farm process, farming cannot be under-rated. This project work “Farmers’ motivation through Agricultural Banks and farm produce productivity” is seeking the Bank’s motivation in quest of increasing productivity.

Before the exploration of oil in Nigeria, farming was the main source by which the country earned her foreign exchange. This was in cocoa, palm produce, groundnut, beniseed and cereals. However, the producers of the above mentioned crops were not in the business of producing yams. So, the Yala people specialized in tuber crops and supplied those who were in commercial farming their food needs. It is of note that the vegetation of Yala is suitable for tuber crops. The people therefore needed assistance as to boost their farming expedition.
