Abstract

This study explores the roles of education, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and social work support in revitalizing Nigeria's agricultural sector, a crucial area for the nation's economic development and food security. It examines how these components individually and collectively contribute to enhancing agricultural productivity, sustainability, and community well-being. The research 
culminates that integrating CSR with educational and social work efforts creates a synergistic effect, facilitating the adoption of innovative agricultural techniques and improving resource access for farmers. It underscores the importance of education in equipping future agricultural leaders with essential skills and knowledge, CSR in fostering sustainable agricultural practices and community support, and social work in providing practical assistance and addressing barriers to productivity. By synthesizing these elements, the study proposes a comprehensive approach to revitalizing Nigeria's agricultural sector, aimed towards promotion of economic growth, enhanced food security, and improved livelihoods.
