Policy Preferences: Stakeholder Survey in Nigeria, 2019

Description

This dataset includes results of a survey conducted in Nigeria in 2019 to assess policy preferences using a best-worst-scaling (BWS) methodology. The BWS method entailed respondents completing a series of seven choice sets on which they were asked to select the best (most desirable) and worst (least desirable) use of funds if government were to increase its agricultural sector spending by Naira 25 billion. Respondents each completed seven such choice sets, each including a different subset of four policy options from the seven total policy options (input subsidies, Food Reserve Authority, extension, crop R&D, infrastructure [roads and bridges], credit/loan, and regulatory capacity). Respondents also completed the same number of choice sets for a scenario in which government had to cut its agricultural sector spending by Naira 25 billion. Respondents included Nigerian agricultural sector stakeholders representing research organizations, government, NGOs, private sector organizations, and donor agencies. This survey was undertaken as a follow up to a broader survey of stakeholders to assess stakeholder opinion on the quality of policy processes and institutional architecture. This survey was implemented via an online survey that respondents completed on their own on a laptop, tablet, or mobile phone.
