Essential Agricultural Science by O.A. Iwena is the most widely used Agricultural Science textbook in Nigerian senior secondary schools and the standard reference for WAEC and NECO Agricultural Science examinations. It covers the complete SS1 to SS3 agricultural science curriculum in a format that is both comprehensive and accessible.
The textbook covers crop production, animal husbandry, soil science, farm management, agricultural economics, and the practical aspects of farming systems examined in WAEC Paper 3. Its strength lies in how it connects theoretical knowledge to practical application — an approach that directly mirrors how WAEC Agricultural Science questions are framed.
Agricultural Science is often underestimated as an examination subject. Students who do not prepare from the standard textbook frequently struggle with specific terminology, identification questions, and the detail required in essay answers. Essential Agricultural Science provides exactly the coverage needed to avoid those gaps.
