Econometric Analysis of the Economic Cost of Lethal Yellowing Disease (LYD) on Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) Yield in LYD Epidemic Area of Nigeria: A Case Study of Nigerian Institute for Oil Palm Research (NIFOR)

Q. E. Osemwegie, M. A. Anyiwe & J. O. Odewale · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2016

Coconut is cultivated particularly in the Southern part of Nigeria mostly as economic crop. However, in recent years its production has been declining due to lethal yellowing disease (LYD). This poses a threat to coconut and its industry, and consequently to coconut growers in LY...
