摘要

The need for improved solid waste management (SWM) cannot be overlooked. Hitherto in Nigeria, SWM was generally considered urban-focused and limited attention was paid to the rural areas, which form the larger proportion of the country's farming households. These days however, many state governments are partnering with private organizations with the goal of achieving improved SWM system. This study therefore examined willingness-to-pay (WTP) for SWM services by farming households in rural areas of Kwara State, Nigeria. Primary data were obtained from 120 rural households. An open-ended elicitation method was used to obtain the WTP and a probit regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting their WTP. The main SWM methods used by the households were land-filling (50.8%) and open-burning (40%). Although all the households were aware of the effects of poor SWM on health and well-being, 80.6% were willing to pay for the services. The average WTP was N696/month (US$ 4.22/month) by a household. The significant determinants of WTP for the services by the households were educational level of the household head (p＜0.05), household income (p＜0.01) and amount of waste generated per week (p＜0.1). The study therefore recommends improving the educational status and income of the rural households and provision of improved SWM services at an affordable rate.
