Research background: Food production financing in Nigeria has been a source of concern for many years, causing the entire country to experience intense food insecurity as a direct consequence of entirely unnecessary insensitivity to what is needful at a time. This research took all of these misgivings into consideration and aims to figure out the degree to which direct taxes could alleviate this pressure by earmarking more direct tax receipts to farming activities.
