Abstract: Nigerian Extension Services have experienced so many changes and reorganizations within the last century. These changes have not brought any significant contribution to agricultural production in the country. This situation has left a puzzle as to why Nigerian agriculture still remain traditional and fails to witness any scientific transformation. This paper therefore reviews the various reorganizations of agricultural Extension Services in Nigeria and throws light on specific changes that have occurred and their implications on the effectiveness of. the country's agricultural Extension Services.
