Several approaches have been used to deliver extension services to arable Farmers in Ibarapa/Ibadan agricultural zone of Oyo State, Nigeria to improve productivity.

Also, extension service delivery had high influence on farmers’ production skills gained.
Outcome of extension service delivery was favourable to farmers’ productivity.
However, inadequate number of extension agents’ visits to farmers, inadequate facility for effective extension work and shortage of working capital for extension work were the major problems hindering effective extension service delivery.
Farmers’ perception of extension service delivery was significantly related to marital status and the problems encountered.
There was a negative significant difference in farmers’ perception of extension service delivery and their productivity.
