This article is designed to help students who wish to study Agricultural Resources Extension under the Faculty of Agriculture at the Federal University of Technology (FUTA).
It is very important for all candidates who wish to apply for any of the courses offered in FUTA to carefully confirm and see if the course they selected is offered in the institution before registering for JAMB.
The page below covers the WAEC or NECO subject combination for this course, the four JAMB UTME papers, and the Direct Entry route, with the minimum JAMB score stated at the end.

Statistics Counts Toward FUTA Agricultural Resources Extension
Four O’level credits are fixed, namely English, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology. The fifth comes from Physics, Economics, Further Mathematics or Statistics.
Statistics and Economics in that group widen the course beyond a pure science intake, and neither appears again later on the page.
At UTME the combination is Chemistry, Biology or Agriculture, and Physics or Mathematics, so Agriculture is accepted in place of Biology only at that stage.
Direct Entry names Chemistry, Biology or Agric Science, and Zoology or Botany, bringing two further specialist biology subjects into play.
Chemistry is required on every route. Candidates entering through UTME need a minimum of 180 and above in their JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
