dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the preferred channels of agricultural information dissemination for agricultural students by National Agricultural Extension Research and Liaison Services (NAERLS), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. The study aimed at finding out the preferred channels of disseminating agricultural information to agricultural science students and the challenges agricultural science students faced in the channels of agricultural information dissemination by NAERLS, ABU Zaria. The study adopted quantitative research method using descriptive research design. The population of the study was 995 and a sample size of 320 was drawn for the study from agricultural science students in Faculty of Agriculture, ABU, Zaria. Questionnaire was the instrument used. In order to incorporate all respondents in all levels, proportionate stratified random sampling technique was used in selecting respondents for the study. Data collected were sorted and analysed using frequency tables, simple percentages and descriptive mean of Standard Deviation. Findings revealed that agricultural science students of Ahmadu Bello University Zaria preferred most of the channels of agricultural information dissemination. But they are also faced with attendant challenges. Consequently, the study recommended that NAERLS should enhance their services alongside the dissemination channels in order to boost satisfaction. Also, efforts should be intensified on creating a pact between NAERLS, their international agencies and their immediate environment which they are expected to serve on the available services to mitigate the challenges faced.en_US
