This study analysed the determinants of climate change risk perception among cassava farmers in Anambra state, Nigeria. Among the specific objectives were to examine the socio-economic characteristics of cassava farmers in the area and farmer’s climate change risk perception. Multi-stage sampling technique was used to select one hundred and sixty (160) respondents who were selected from 40 communities and 8 L.G.As from across the four Agricultural Zones of the state. Data were obtained through the administration of structured questionnaire to the respondents. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, weighted mean obtained from Likert scale, and Tobit model. The results of the socioeconomic characteristics of farmers showed that majority of the farmers had formal education and only 15.19% had no formal education, 56.74% of the farmers had 11years of farming experience. The farmers’ risk perception showed that the most important risk factors perceived by cassava farmers in their farm are flooding/erosion, increased frequency and intensity of rainfall and incidence of pest and diseases. The factors influencing their level of risk perception showed that age, level of education, access to extension agents and access to climate change information have significant effect on farmers’ risk perception. It was therefore inferred that the farmers have reasonable perception of climate change risk. Based on the findings, it was recommended that there is need for effective and functional extension services and provision of enabling environment and policies that will help boost the socio-economic welfare of farmers as this will significantly help in the management of climate change risk in the study area.
