ABSTRACT

This research explores the impact of policy interventions on the development of agro-based micro-enterprises in Nigeria. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the study examines the various policies implemented by the Nigerian government aimed at fostering the growth of micro-enterprises in the agricultural sector. Additionally, it investigates the challenges faced by these enterprises in adhering to such policies and analyzes their effectiveness in promoting sustainable development within the sector. Findings suggest that while certain policies have facilitated growth and innovation, others have been hindered by bureaucratic bottlenecks and inadequate implementation strategies. The study underscores the importance of tailored policy frameworks that address the unique needs of agro-based micro-enterprises to enhance their contribution to Nigeria’s economic development.
