description The survey examines factors affecting farmer participation in agricultural projects in Ngaka Modiri Molema district in North West province. A random sampling technique was used in selecting 20 farmers from each of 6 selected villages, which gave a sample size of 120 farmers. Data were gathered with the use of questionnaire administered as an interview schedule, which were subjected to analysis using SPSS. The results show that majority (60.3%) of farmers are above 55 years, 51.6% were males, 54.2% had formal education up to High school level, and 97% were willing to participate in agricultural projects. Significant determinants of participation in agricultural projects household size (t =5.023), effectiveness of rural development programme (t = 2.00), constraints (t = -1.90) and effectiveness of LRAD (t = 1.80).
