Technology adoption for increased productivity can only be relevant when technologies introduced are adequately complied with. This study assessed the level of compliance by CAY -Seed and NRCRI-Seed yam farmers to usage seed production examined CAY- Seed NRCRI - farmers’ farms. The adopted a multi-stage sampling technique total 283 respondents were used study. In addition, made use cross-sectional data which analysed using descriptive statistics, index factor productivity. findings revealed that CAY-Seed optimally (0.8932) with than their counterparts (0.5982). Similarly, farms had higher TFP (1.9133) compared (1.8009). should take up super-optimally utilize all improved agricultural (bio-farming activities) available them. trainings intervention projects meant improve established in areas where produce is low.
