The study therefore, examined the profitability of cheese production among nomadic households in Ogun State. Data were with an interview schedule from 180 randomly selected nomadic households. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and farm budgetary analysis. Results showed that cheese producers in the study area had a mean age of 51 years with 79.0% having no formal education.

The mean years of experience in cheese production was 18 years while the mean quantity of milk processed into cheese by the producers was 203 kg per month. The monthly total revenue for the study area was N42, 343.33/kg from 846.8kg of cheese at ₦50/kg while variable cost was ₦33, 281.99 giving a gross margin of ₦9, 061.34/kg. Net farm income/kg on cheese production was ₦8, 968.58/kg. The rate of return on investment was computed to be 0.27 kobo. This study concluded that cheese production was profitable in the study area.
