Telehealth services in rural areas of Nigeria have been limited due to infrastructure challenges and financial barriers. A mixed-methods approach combining surveys and qualitative interviews was used to gather data from a sample of rural farmers in Nigeria. Farmers reported a significant increase (p<0.05) in adopting disease prevention measures through telehealth services, with over 70% indicating improved financial stability. Telehealth services have shown promise in enhancing the health and economic resilience of rural Nigerian farmers by providing accessible healthcare solutions. Investment in telehealth infrastructure and training programmes is recommended to maximise its benefits for underserved communities. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.
