The study analysed capture and culture fishery production in National Institute for Freshwater Fisheries Research (NIFFR) adopted villages in Kainji Lake Basin, Nigeria for year 2020. A total of 170 respondents in NIFFR adopted villages were selected through random sampling technique. Data for the study were collected through structured interview schedule consisting of both open and close ended questions. Data collected were analysed descriptively.
