CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

As demands for outdoor recreation have grown, conflict among uses becomes an increasingly important issue of public recreation policy and management planning. Two alternative venues for conflict require continued and increasingly creative management input for those charged with prioritizing scarce public resources. The first venue of interaction is that which arises between outdoor recreation and other forms of land use (Clawson M, 2014). This inter-use interaction has affected how open space develops and is represented by contentions between disparate land uses. Examples include land use choices that exist between residential developments, commodity production and out-door recreation. Within each primary use, however, there exists a rich heterogeneity of individual interactions leading to a second type of use interaction. This intra-use interaction grows as a result of a finite resource base combined with both increased aggregate demand for outdoor recreation and technological change that allows new forms of outdoor recreation, such as geo-caching, all-terrain vehicle use, and jet skiing to proliferate (Roe M, Benson J., 2011). Without diminishing the contextual importance of inter-use compatibility, the focus of the work reported here is on this latter challenge of how to understand, plan for, and manage interactions between recreational users. This review provides a snapshot and critical perspective of the past 25 years of applied research in outdoor recreation and leisure science. Further, it informs and analytically extends related concepts of land resource and environmental economics. In particular, our approach to recreational use interaction builds on the concept of relative land-use compatibilities developed by Clawson and incorporates multiple-use, joint-production trade-off concepts of van Kooten (2009), formalized as multi-product ‘additivity’ in the environmental economics literature.

Broadly speaking, this approach forwards the more comprehensive notion that positive outcomes result when interaction between recreation types is complementary (increasing benefits with increased use) or supplementary (neutral interaction with increased use). Negative out-comes result when interaction between recreational users is competitive (decreasing benefits with increased use) or antagonistic (when the presence of one activity does not allow the other to occur). Competitive and antagonistic interactions between recreational users (resulting in conflict) can be understood as representing relative levels of incompatibility between alternative recreation uses. While clearly dependent on many factors, specific forms of recreation are more able to interact in supplementary or complementary ways (without conflict) with some forms of recreation than they can with others.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

There seems to be variations in outdoor recreation in most of the cities in most Developed States in Nigeria. These States include Rivers state, Enugu, Abuja and Lagos state. This could be as a result of Poor Recreational Facilities in most of the less developed areas in Nigeria, such as in Biu Borno State. It could also be as a result of poor or high Socio-Economic Status of the residents in most of these States. Hence, this Study is designed to plan outdoor recreation in Biu Borno State.

The Study seeks to examine planning outdoor recreation in Biu Borno State. The Objectives of the Study are to:

  1. to determine the types of outdoor recreation plans in Biu Borno State
  2. determine the importance of planning outdoor recreation in Biu Borno State

3) Identify the influence of outdoor recreation planning on socio economic development of Biu Borno State

1.4 RESEARCH QUESTIONS

The Research Questions are:

1)     What are the types of outdoor recreation plans in Biu Borno State?

2) What is the importance of planning outdoor recreation in Biu Borno State?

3) What is the influence of outdoor recreation planning on socio economic development of Biu Borno State?

1.5 HYPOTHESIS

H01: outdoor recreation planning has no influence on socio economic development of Biu Borno State

H1: outdoor recreation planning has significance influence on socio economic development of Biu Borno State

1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The following are the significance of this study:

1.     The outcome of this research will create awareness to both the general public and residence of Biu Borno State on the need for outdoor recreation planning in Biu Borno State.

2.     This research will be a contribution to the body of literature in the area of outdoor recreation planning in Biu Borno State, thereby constituting the empirical literature for future research in the subject area.

1.7 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The Study Covered On planning outdoor recreation planning in Biu Borno State

1.8 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

Financial constraint- Insufficient fund tends to impede the efficiency of the researcher in sourcing for the relevant materials, literature or information and in the process of data collection (internet, questionnaire and interview).

Time constraint - The researcher will simultaneously engage in this study with other academic work. This consequently will cut down on the time devoted for the research work.

1.9 DEFINITION OF TERMS
