The study was undertaken to evaluate the Fadama phase-one vegetable production project of the Anambra State Agricultural Development Project (ADP). Data for the study were collected from 160 vegetable growers (80 project farmers and 80 non-project farmers), through the use of a set of structured interview schedule. Percentage, mean scores, factor analysis, ttest, and chisquare statistics were used in the data analysis. The result of the study indicated that telfaria and okra production were most preferred to other vegetables during dry and wet seasons, respectively, mainly due to their high income generating capacity, high market demand, high yielding capacity and usefulness and readily availability to the family.
