N2 - This article articulates the usefulness of a participatory farm budget in addressing challenges associated with the recall of agricultural prices, inputs, outputs, and estimate biases in the global south. The study is foregrounded in a qualitative paradigm. Participatory farm budgeting is a method that permits stakeholders to analyze, quantify input, output resources, and farm profit. The method highlighted higher economic returns associated with sucker production, an aspect neglected and trivialized by the conventional farm methods. We recommend dedicated attention to harness the economic benefits derived from sucker production through the radical use of the participatory farm budget.
