Peri-Urban Farming: Panacea to Food Insecurity in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, Nigeria
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Over this century, as urbanization and climate change intensify, peri-urban agriculture will encounter more and more difficulties. Thus, research on decreasing Ogbomoso’s, Nigeria, food problem through peri-urban agriculture is necessary. The research design used in the study was a descriptive survey. The population in the region consisted of more than thirty thousand (30,000) Ogbomoso individuals. Sixty (60) respondents were chosen from among Ogbomoso farmers, government employees, traders, and artisans, and questionnaires were distributed among them. Data was gathered through the use of structured questionnaires and primary sources. The findings indicate that a greater number of married men and women engaged in farming than unmarried farmers, even despite their familial obligations. The study looked at and evaluated peri-urban agriculture (PUA) as a means of guaranteeing food supply in Ogbomoso. According to the results, PUA has a lot of potential to guarantee a constant supply of food in the city. Ogbomoso's PUA can lessen the city's food scarcity since it gives residents' homes and marketplaces direct access to food that is grown locally. PUA in Ogbomoso has a future if the opportunities it has been identified as having and the obstacles it faces are sufficiently handled.

Il est donc nécessaire de mener des recherches sur la réduction des problèmes alimentaires à Ogbomoso, au Nigéria, grâce à l'agriculture périurbaine. Le plan de recherche utilisé dans l'étude était une enquête descriptive. La population de la région comptait plus de trente mille (30 000) habitants d'Ogbomoso. Soixante (60) répondants ont été choisis parmi les agriculteurs, les fonctionnaires, les commerçants et les artisans d'Ogbomoso, et des questionnaires leur ont été distribués. Les données ont été collectées au moyen de questionnaires structurés et de sources primaires. Les résultats indiquent qu'un plus grand nombre d'hommes et de femmes mariés pratiquent l’agriculture que les agriculteurs célibataires, malgré leurs obligations familiales. L'étude a examiné et évalué l'agriculture périurbaine (AUP) comme moyen de garantir l'approvisionnement alimentaire à Ogbomoso. Selon les résultats, l'AUP a un fort potentiel pour garantir un approvisionnement alimentaire constant dans la ville. L'AUP d'Ogbomoso peut réduire la pénurie alimentaire de la ville car elle permet aux foyers et aux marchés d’avoir un accès direct aux aliments cultivés localement. L'agriculture périurbaine d'Ogbomoso a un avenir si les opportunités identifiées et les obstacles rencontrés sont correctement gérés. Mots-clés : agriculture périurbaine, pauvreté, ménages, Ogbomoso, sécurité alimentaire

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
