CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Agricultural credit in Nigeria dates back to the 1930s but organized credit to farmers did not start until 1972 when the Nigerian Agricultural and Co-operative Bank (NACB) was established.
The awareness of the serious decline in agricultural production was probably partly responsible for the establishment of the bank.
The NACB is not the only financial institution which provides agriculture credit. Prior to the establishment of NACB, agricultural credit scheme was operated by some agencies such as the Ministry of Agriculture’s supervised credit scheme, agricultural credit co-operation, co-operative thrift and loan schemes, farmers multi-purpose co-operative societies. Most of these institution were not effective sources for strictly agricultural credit. There was a lot of evidence that creditors borrowed money for agricultural but diverted it to other ventures.
Again, credit was often extended to only favouries and scarcely to genuine small-scale farmers. Besides they could not meet the collateral and equity contribution requirement, a situation that compelled a significant proportion of the farmers to seek for other sources of credit.
According to Idachaba quoted from Cardoso, (1987) a survey carried out showed that 58% of farming related borrowings was from family and friends, 24% from private money leaders, 15% from macharts and only 3% from institutional sources.
However, while family and friends charged little or no interest. Organized credit facilities for Nigeria’s rural faming population. Would reduce the dependence on sources other than the formal financial houses.
It is against this background that the researcher is to investigate how credit will be effectively administered in co-operative enterprises. This will enable us to identify the major problem associated with credit administration and seek solution to these problem to ensure continued existence of the co-operative.
