In Nigeria, fish farming provides an important source of livelihood for fish farmers and also provides foreign exchange earnings. This study ascertained the determinants of loan repayment among fish farmers in Nigeria.. Primary data were obtained from 360 respondents in the study area by means of a set of structured and semi-structured questionnaire. This study used multi-stage random sampling technique to select 360 respondents from the study area. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistic and Ordinary Least Square (OLS) multiple regression technique. The results indicated that semi-log production function had the best fit in explaining the relationship between loan repayment and independent variables used. The coefficient of multiple determinants (R2= 0.59) indicates that 59 percent of the variability in loan repayment is explained by the independent variables used in the model. The volume of credit granted to fish farmer, fish farming experience, fish farmers’ educational level, and fish farmers’ income exerted positive influences on loan repayment. Only 45.83 % of fish farmers in the study area repaid the loans.
