The study assessed effectiveness of SPDC’s agricultural intervention in Niger Delta communities of Nigeria. It
examined the socio-economic characteristics of beneficiaries; determined the level of performance of agricultural
intervention and assessed the impact of agricultural intervention on the wellbeing of beneficiaries. Multi-stage
sampling technique was used to select a hundred and sixty respondents for the study. The study used primary data
gathered through a semi-structured questionnaire and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) held with the community
leaders. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and composite index analysis while Pearson Product Moment
Correlation (PPMC) was used to test the hypothesis. The findings revealed that the project was well funded by SPDC
and performance was high as it exceeded 0.70 index range while the impact of intervention on the wellbeing of the
beneficiaries was on the average between 0.40 and 0.69 index range. The result of hypothesis tested showed the
correlation coefficient, R = 0.432 meaning there existed a positive relationship between effectiveness of agricultural
intervention and wellbeing of beneficiaries. It was concluded that, SPDC’s agricultural intervention should perform
effectively, have high level of impact on beneficiaries’ wellbeing and be sustainable if the objective of improvement of
beneficiaries’ wellbeing must be achieved.
