The early Agricultural extension system experimented the pre-independence and immediate post-independence ones as Lugarians and commodity-focused system largely neglected by the farmer.
The Nigeria extension service has failed to acknowledge farmers into an effective lobby because of the experience which has an emphasis on what the government can do for the farmer rather than what the farmer can organized to do for them selves. No matter how the extension strategies, no significant impact will be made into technology adoption until the issue of production enhancing input is addressed through deliberate and attractive policy option on improvement in extension delivery, as characterized the present ADP extension system, it is necessary to appreciate agricultural extension as a purely educational process. This requires the complete separation of future extension system from any attachment to civil service agencies and regulation.
Consideration Should be given to linking future extension to the university which should be mandated to collaborate with NGOs and international development agencies.
