Bio

Peter Njiforti's research interests span the fields of agricultural economics, environmental economics, and development economics, and he has published widely in both local and international peer-reviewed journals. His research has led to several interesting findings, such as the significant role that traditional beliefs and religion play in influencing the uptake and use of weather-related insurance products in our study area. Most recently, he concluded a study on the foresight analysis of groundnut, pearl millet, and sorghum, sponsored by the International Crop Research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRIAT). Njiforti holds a Ph.D. in Agricultural Economics, M.Sc. in Agricultural Economics, and a B.Sc. in Economics from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.
