        <dc:description>The most recent groundnut varieties registered and released in Nigeria are SAMNUT 24, SAMUT 25 and&#13;
SAMNUT 26. Using appropriate sampling procedures, a total of 224 representatives of farm-families were&#13;
interviewed with 112 from administrative units where a development project is being implemented (PLGA), and&#13;
112 from administrative units where project interventions are absent (NPLGA). Results of the study reveal that&#13;
improved groundnut varieties are becoming part of a multitude of groundnut varieties being cultivated by&#13;
farmers in PLGA and NPLGAs. Amongst the improved groundnut varieties, SAMNUT 24 was being planted by&#13;
39% and 28% of households in PLGA and NPLGA, respectively. Similarly, amongst the varieties described as&#13;
local, Ex-dakar is grown by 31% and 35% of households in PLGA and NPLGA, respectively. Five underlying&#13;
factors were found to drive adoption decisions: farming experience, age, education, access to (improved seeds&#13;
and extension services) and household size. Beyond the combined use of seeds of improved groundnut&#13;
varieties and accompanying management practices, using the right combination of inputs to optimize financial&#13;
gains remains a challenge to the households involved in the study.</dc:description>
