Three decades of experimentation in tropical Nigeria: A personal experience

by Paul Ola Igboji

Life is a journey. The way time flies. Three decades of academics, research and charity packed life. From 1984 - 2014 the pedestal has been on to shape tropical agriculture, capture temperate agriculture, and serve humanity in all spheres of life. Most rewarding is the metamorphosis in academics and charity at local and cross-country levels. There can be no better tribute to my lecturers, supervisors, students, bosses, schools, colleges and universities than to chronicle this personal three decades of experimentation in tropical Nigeria. The place of experimentation in tropical agriculture has come a long way. Many schools, colleges, research institutes, universities have done great jobs in raising agricultural graduates that have changed the landscape of tropical agriculture.
