Sažetak
This article analyzed the trends, constraints and competitiveness of potato exports in Nigeria from 1961- 2016. This article employed trend analysis, Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) and Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA). The results revealed that the trend in export is positive. The constraints to the exports of potato are mainly administrative and institutional, which include the documentation process; time required to export and costs of exports. Nigerian potato exports were more competitive from 2010 – 2016. There should be a more judicious effort in implementing the executive orders for the ease of doing business in Nigeria.
