Background of the Study
Tax compliance is a significant concern in rural areas, particularly for farmers who are often subject to local tax regimes. In Tafawa Balewa LGA, farmers face numerous challenges in complying with tax regulations, many of which are due to the informal nature of agricultural practices and the lack of awareness about tax obligations. These challenges can result in low compliance rates, which in turn affect local revenue generation and the implementation of rural development programs.
This study aims to explore the compliance challenges that farmers face under local tax regimes in Tafawa Balewa LGA, identifying the barriers to tax compliance and the potential solutions to improve the situation. Understanding these challenges is essential for designing effective tax policies that are equitable and supportive of the agricultural community.
