Participatory land use planning was conducted with the aim to develop community natural resources maps in some selected community development areas (CDA) for sustainable land use planning and problem prioritization for intervention in Jigawa State. Mapping of the community natural resources was conducted in six selected communities in two local government areas: Auyo LGA (Auyokayi, Ayan and Gamafoi), Dutse LGA (Dagwaje, Gandun Fawa and Kwadiya). The six CDAs were sketched, delineated and mapped participatorily, thereafter, problems of each of the CDAs were listed and ranked. The results obtained indicated that, land use types identified were rain-fed/upland, Fadama/ lowland, Sand-dunes areas and others. Farmlands are the major land use types in the study area, major prioritized problems by the farmers were poor irrigation facilities, low soil fertility, poor access roads and, inadequate water for domestic use.
