This study seeks a digression from the predominant narratives advanced by scholars and observers that examines the impacts of Large-scale Land Acquisitions (LSLAs) as it pertains to concerns about food security, water access, biodiversity and environmental degradation. As such, it unearths a dearth of research by examining how LSLAs have corrosively impacted already vulnerable women's land rights and birthed farmers-herders conflict in the agrarian north-central region of Nigeria. Also, while extant studies have widely engaged the problematic of farmers-herders clashes from the trajectory of strained ethno-religious divisions that defines the heterogeneous Nigerian state, this study interrogates the interface between LSLAs and resource-based violence by examining the elements and dynamics implicated in the establishment of 10,000 hectares commercial rice farm in Rukubi–Andorie  communities Nasarawa state; the resultant loss of usufructuary land rights and outbreak of farmers-herders clashes. Primarily, the study examines how forced migratory farming caused by LSLAs births conflict.
