The climate of the state allows for favourable cultivation and extraction of agricultural and forest products such as palm produce, rubber, cocoa, rice, cassava, yam, plantain, banana, maize, and timber.
There are basically two types of agriculture in Akwa lbom.
The first is the small-scale peasant farming usually practiced on family basis, and which produces food crops such as cassava, maize, rice, yam and cocoyam for family consumption with the surplus sold in the local markets.
The second type of farming is the estate farming which specialises in growing cash crops such as rubber, cocoa, rice and oil palm.
