Estimating Household Demand for Millet in Kaduna and Kano States, Nigeria: Application of Linearized Almost Ideal Demand System Model.

Öz

This study estimated household demand for millet in Kaduna and Kano States, Nigeria: application of linearized almost ideal demand system model. A multi-stage sampling design was utilized to select 200 millet growers. Primary data were used based on a well-structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and linearized almost ideal demand system model (LA-AIDS). The result shows that the mean age of millet growers is 42 years with an average of 8 years spent in attending school education. The household sizes were large with an average of 8 members per household. Also, millet exhibited price inelastic demand with an own price elasticity of – 0.381, indicating that price changes exerted small effects on household consumption. The estimated income elasticity of 0.787 classified millet as a normal good suggesting that consumption increases with income. Cross price elasticities showed a weak substitutability between millet, maize and sorghum reflecting millets unique cultural and dietary role to households in the study area. Furthermore, the regression analysis further revealed that socio- economic factors such as age, gender, education and household size were statistically insignificant except marital status (0.3187) which positively and significantly influence millet demand. These findings highlight that household millet demand is more strongly influenced by price and expenditure dynamics than socio-economic characteristics. Policy implication include the need to enhance millet farming through provision of necessary inputs for farmers such like fertilizers, improved seeds and access to credit and the need to promote millet consumption through price stabilization, value addition and nutritional awareness campaigns particularly in the context of dietary diversification and consumer preferences.
