Abstract: The study investigated the technical and scale efficiency of poultry egg production in Nigeria using a stochastic frontier approach. Data used for the analysis was extracted from the Nigeria - General Household Survey, Panel 2018-2019, Wave 4 of the world Bank .The result showed that the dataset is filled with backyard production system which is very close to 99%. The remaining was for both semi intensive and intensive production system. Only 8 of the states did not attain to full scale efficiencies. The result showed a very poor performance in terms of TE-CRS and TE-VRS. For the efficiency by size, the intensive production system has the highest value while the backyard and semi intensive were the second and third values respectively. In terms of the sectorial categorization, there was virtually no difference in the efficiency performance of the urban and rural settings. The paper grossly underscored the abject negligence of government and other high capacity stakeholders of the poultry subsector in the country.
