Background of the Study
Agricultural projects in Northern Nigeria face various challenges, including financial inefficiency, lack of proper budgeting, and poor resource management. Cost management techniques, such as cost allocation, budgeting, and financial analysis, can significantly enhance the financial efficiency of these projects. This study will explore how cost management techniques are applied to improve the financial efficiency of agricultural projects in Northern Nigeria.
Statement of the Problem
