This study therefore analyses the infrastructural profile and poverty status of farming households in Edu local government of Kwara state. 120 questionnaires were administered to farm family heads.

It is therefore recommended that adequate infrastructural facilities should be readily available for the rural dwellers to improve their agricultural productivity with the resultant effect on poverty reduction
