Description Majority of economies in the world are either developing or underdeveloped nations. These economies have low productivity in agriculture for want of sufficient production technology and capital formation. Agricultural sector still occupies a key place in such economies, despite of poor resources and low capital investment capacity of farmers. Capital formation is the outcome of investment. As a matter of fact investment refers to the flow of expenditure diverted to increase or maintain capital stock. In economic theory, it is the periodic addition to the capital stock in an economy, industry or firm that takes place in response to a gap between the actual level of capital stock and its desired level (Gandhi, 1996). More specifically, agricultural investment refers to ch~inges in the level of all inputs that augment physical capital, enhance agricultural production capacity and the conservation of natural resources, knowledge and human capital development, rural infrastructure net-work and post-production equipments.
