A FUZZY LOGIC-BASED EVALUATION OF FARMER-HERDER CONFLICTS IN KIRIKASAMMA AND GURI LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS IN JIGAWA STATE, NIGERIA
This study applies a fuzzy decision-making model to address farmers-herders conflicts in Kirikasamma and Guri LGAs of Jigawa State, Nigeria. Two conflict resolution strategies designated grazing corridors and rotational grazing systems were evaluated using fuzzy linguistic scales and Hamming distance. Stakeholder preferences were aggregated and analyzed, revealing a slight preference for grazing corridors. The results demonstrate the suitability of fuzzy logic in resolving complex, multi-stakeholder conflicts.
