About the department

The Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension was established in October 2022 as one of the four founding academic departments of the Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources Management. It was created to train professionals who can analyse agricultural markets, guide farm-level decision making, and deliver extension services that connect university research with rural communities across Jigawa State and northern Nigeria.
