ABSTRACT
Evaluation of power sources helps to know the power available for agricultural. Thesis necessary to know, because power input to agriculture affects the volume of agricultural production. In view of this, the farm power sources available in Igbo-Etiti Local Government Area of Enugu State were evaluated and it was found that human power internal combustion and energy from the sun were available. Very little or no work had been earlier on this study in the local government area, thus documentation on farm power sources and utilization in the local government area has been minimal. This study therefore attempts to solve this problem by identifying, analyzing and appraising.
