One of the factors that determine the supply of agricultural produce in Nigeria is?

A. Price of substitutes
B. Technological development
C. Consumers choice
D. Consumers income

Correct Answer:

Option B – Technological development

Explanation

Technological development; technological advances are an important factor in agriculture supply. Individual people can consume only a limited amount of food, but technology has contributed greatly to the ability of producers to grow more. Technology has been used to improve the performance of almost everything in agriculture, from seeds to livestock to equipment.

The adoption of technology in agriculture has expanded agricultural output over a range of prices. In other words, applying new technology to agricultural production has lowered costs, so at each price more production is offered for sale.
