Aims: To analyze Economics of Rain-fed Cabbage Production in Kaduna State, Nigeria. Study Design: Primary data were collected from 130 cabbage farmers with the aid of structured questionnaire. Place and Duration of Study: This study was carried out in three local government areas (Kudan, Sabon-Gari and Zaria) in Kaduna state during 2015 cropping season. Methodology: Multistage purposive and random sampling techniques were employed for data collection.Results: The results of the maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of the stochastic frontier production function model revealed that farm size was significant to cabbage output. The technical efficiency scores revealed that the most efficient farmer operated at 98% efficiency, the least efficient farmer was found to operate at 1% efficiency level, while the mean was indicating that rainfed cabbage farmers still have room to increase the efficiency in their farming activities from the Original Research Article
