- This study examined Orange fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) demand in Vandeikya LGA, Benue State, Nigeria. Special attention was also given to the question of whether income group allocation between household had any significant effect on OFSP demand. Primary data were used for the study. Data were collected from one hundred (100) respondents randomly selected through the use of questionnaire and oral interview. The data were analysed using descriptive and regression analysis. The result showed that 65% of the respondents were male. The mean age was 37.5 years with most of the respondents (95%) having formal education. It was further observed that majority of the respondents were married and most of them (71%) having a household size of 1-5 persons. Most of the respondents (62%) were salary earners while high income earners spent 10.05% of their income, middle income earners spent 9.75% and low income earners spent 6.18% on OFSP consumption. The regression result revealed that the , income of the respondents, price of OFSP, price of substitutes significantly determined the demand for OFSP at (p 0.01) ditto for education level, nutrition information and age were significant at (p 0.05). The study also revealed that OFSP was price inelastic with a coefficient of -0.23, cross-inelastic (0.0006) and income elastic (13.89) while age has elastic coefficient of 17.61. It was therefore recommended that government should boost the production of OFSP so as to reduce the price and also increase awareness about the importance of OFSP on humans health. Efforts should likewise be made to scale up the utilization of OFSP by value addition to increase the demand and consumption of OFSP.
