Abstract: This study is on the effects FADAMA III programme on productive assets acquisition on the beneficiaries. To achieve this, the study seeks to determine whether productive assets acquisition component of FADAMA III has significant and positive effects among the beneficiaries, and o find out whether significant difference exists in the level of productive assets acquisition. The study had a sample of 245 beneficiaries drawn from 12 Fadama Community Associations (FCAs) and 30 Fadama User Groups (FUG) units from Kaduna and Sokoto States, Nigeria. Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) was used to test the formulated hypothesis at 0.05 levels of significance and independent sample t-test was used to establish the differences in the level of productive assets acquisition. Results indicate that productive assets acquisition has strong and positive effects on the beneficiaries (r= 0.701, p= 0.000). The study recommends that the Nigerian Governments and donor agencies, the World Bank and African Development Bank should to initiate multi-pronged livelihood enhancing strategies that could stimulate productive assets acquisition by Smallholder farmers who produce the bulk of food stuffs in agrarian societies like Nigeria.
