Abstract
Many of the diseases contributing to the disease burden in low-income countries are tightly linked to the debilitating conditions of poverty. At the global level, there are three primary poverty-related diseases (PRDs) acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), malaria and tuberculosis (TB). This study determining the effect of poverty diseases and adaptive capacities to climate change on farmers’ incomes along River Niger in Edo and Kogi States, Nigeria. Primary data were collected from respondents, multistage sampling technique were used to select respondents in Edo and Kogi State. Descriptive statistics and different functional forms of ordinary least squares (OLS) were used to analysis the data. The findings reveal that age, had a coefficient estimate of 1.83 and significant at P< 0.01, thus implies that a year increase in age will lead to increase in respondent income by 1.83%. It was concluded that age, farm size, distance to health centres, distance from farm to market and days absent from work were the variables affecting farmers’ income in the study areas. The results also identified twenty-three major constraints to poverty diseases and climate change adaptation strategies in the study areas. The study recommended that policy makers should provide basic amenities for respondents residing along river Niger communities, such as health care Centre, markets, as well as access to farmland, to reduce challenges of income spent on traveling distance by respondents
