This paper discusses critical input and output factors of research and development (R&D) in higher education institutions in Nigeria. It also shows quantitative analyses of researchers' productivity using partial productivity approach and an assessment of factors influencing research productivity. Based on a recent research effort, researchers were sampled from 12 leading Universities. They were randomly selected from the fields of Agriculture, Science and Technology/Engineering. Findings from the results reveal that productivity of the researchers is of medium category. Also, input factors such as: qualifications of researchers, years of experience, research collaborations and time spent on research; significantly contribute to research productivity.
