The broad objective of the study was to determine the effects of the Women-InAgriculture programme on the welfare of the participants. Simple random sampling was used in selecting the respondents who were involved in the WIA programme in 2007. The sample was made up of 32 WIA participants consisting Barracks cell (9), Ekpan cell (6), Ukpolokposo (5), Ugbomro cell (7), and PTI cell (5). Data were collected by the use of structured interview schedule. Data were measured by a four-point rating scale and socio-economic status indicators. Data were analyzed by use of simple percentage, mean, Chi square and t-tests. The age distributions were 26-35 years (6.25%), 36-45 years (1 5.63%) and over 45 years (78.13%). The participants agreed that the programme was beneficial because it enhances access to new technologies and group learning (M=3.56), increase access to credit (M=3.47), access to land (M=2.88), and boost production (M=3.71). There was a significant relationship (P< 0.05) between memberships of cooperative society, and access to land ( = 7.036, r= 0.47), and credit facilities ( = 20.401, r= 0.80). There was a significant difference (p < 0.05) in the welfare of participants before and after participating in the WIA programme ( t =-6.941). Similar programmes should be established and more women should be encouraged to join the WIA programme so that they could reap the gains of agricultural production through involvement in group farming.
