EejaNla01: some people ill come here and start forming pro in english,after 1 or 2 have corrected the op,i see no reason why every1 should start repeating d same thing in different version

@topic,i feel 5 years is much even at 4th year practical year am already tired,i expect we do much practical in our fields so as to stand on our own after school .

Aizebioje: You're welcome. Don't appreciate you rude tone but you're welcome anyway.

TheRainmaker1: As an agricultural science graduate,i believe five years is too long to obtain a B.Agric degree.

I'm presently studying for my MSc (Environmental Management), and due to the nature of my programme, we have students from all over Africa. Most of them spent only 3years (Yes, I said THREE years) studying the same courses we did (E.g, my Ethiopian colleague studied Crop Science).

The problem is that we spend so much time studying things that are not really relevant to the present, and so little time on the things that matter.

I think Four years is enough to learn everything I need to know about agriculture from a school. I'll learn the rest in my farm.

lizchi1: what about food science and technology students that obtains B.sc degree and still studys for 5 yrs?

neyur: alright dude, i know you want to create an awearnes that you were here. Have seen you! Can you now find something to do with your day instead bussy checking on one's spellings and grammers?
If you are sure of yourself,you can as well put a write-up in other and post it as have done.......dorosabi

juanmiguel: Oh my dear! U also forgot to add accounting as a final year course. I'm a graduate of agric economics and extension. I must tell u i don't regret it 1 bit. I had d opportunity to lecture ND2 students in 1 of the polytechnics in lagos state during my service year. It was fun. Ride on!

neyur: Have'nt been through ds discipline for complete five years,i came 2 realised agriculture does not worth d five years programm...supose d courses under d faculty of agriculture ar splitted just like everyother courses in science zone i tink d work load will b reduce n does 1 will not end up been jack of trade n master of none...imgine wen u said ur studying science..it asumed u r studying physcis,chemistry,biology,mathematics,geography n the agriculture itself...bt dis is not so, cuz every course were split n thus ds reduce d work load on d student under ds faculty....so if thesame method is applied 2 agriculture,i tink d students will also find it more easier n intresting in d field...imagine u studying agriculture,along side u will b given many course with subordinate like soil science,animal science,crop science,fishery forestry and many other which i cld not mentioned.all ds ar time consuming...in view of these ar xpress ma opinion, i wouldnt know if agreed or disagreed with my story....bt let hear from you,did u tink d five years programme worth it or not

lyntiffany: including marketing. Am an agricultural economist graduate too and I don't regret it, rather I soar high in it.

SenatorJames: My fellow graduate of agricultural economics, how is life out there? Accept my econometrics greeting.

SenatorJames: @Op, i pity you with the situation you put yourself, it was comment about 5 years agricultural courses you posted, but the great nairalanders had turned it to GCE english class.



@topic, the problem is not the 5 years for agricultural courses, but the quality of the course content. I have always been an advocator of more practical than theory for faculty of agricultural sciences. But the opposite is the case in most university in Nigeria.

doctuw: If you are intelligent enough, why not just go to my profile and read my threads. You are just too dumb for a 21 century graduate.

BCJAY: Honestly speaking i am just hearing it for the first time, i thought it is four years like the other sciences.

neyur: may be because is not your area of interest.

neyur: are you serious,where you schooling?

BCJAY: Sorry i am a teacher i did NCE but my son is studying Agric Engine in ABU i even thought that five yrs is much for him not knowing i am in for more shocker from Agric

BCJAY: I am a lady but you are welcome. Wishing you the best in your endeavours too.

overhypedsteve:
5 years just to learn how to plant corn and feed fowl.

mogentle:
Error, it's far more than that. I'm a professional quality control expert in livestock production with Msc in Agric Biochem & Nutrition and Ist degree in Animal Science. You cant dive into my area with ordinary 1st degree in Agric. @OP, It really worths it.

1stUnique:
I think it should be as it is because one aspect in agriculture might not b profitable in terms of business but if u have many knowledge of different aspect of agric, u can easily venture into another profitable aspect.
