description Enhancing Food Crop Production through Rotatory Credit Savings among Small holder Food Crop Farmers in Demsa Local Government Area of Adamawa State, Nigeria was the focus of this research. A random sample of 120 respondents were collected and data subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that 81.67% of the respondents fall within the age range of 25 to 49 years with mean age of 35 years, males dominated the association (66.67%), 70.83 % were married with mean annual saving of N31, 345.50. Regression analysis revealed that about 71.21 % of the differences in the savings of respondents were explained by the variables included in the model (R2=0.7121). Age, education, income and farm size were the determinants of savings among respondents.
