Arigbede, Oluwasanmi Moses was born on 14th August, 1964 at IpetuIjesha in Ori Ade Local Government Area of Osun State. He attended St. Paul’s primary School, IpetuIjesha between September 1970 and June 1975 andIbokun Grammar School, Ibokun, Osun State from September 1975 to June 1980 for his secondary education. He later proceeded to Government Teachers’ College, Ilesha in September 1980 and completed this in June, 1981 He secured admission into the University of Ibadan in September 1983 and bagged a B.Sc. degree in Animal Science with second class honours upper division (21) in June 1988 and immediately went for National youth service (NYSC) at the International Tanners Limited, Sharada Industrial Phase 1 Kano till August 1989. He embarked on his post graduate studies at the same University of Ibadan in September 1989 and obtained M.Sc. in Ruminant Nutrition in September 1990. He secured a Ph.D. fellowship with the Alley Farming Network for Tropical Africa (AFNETA), at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) in International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), between April 1994 and April 1998. This research work earned him a Ph.D. degree in Ruminant Nutrition / Forage Science June 1998. Professor Arigbede started his career as a secondary school teacher after the completion of his M.Sc. degree in 1990 at the Community High School, Igbajo (January 1991 – March 1993), Owoope High School, Gbongan (March 1993 – March 1994) and Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources (MANR), Osogbo (March, 1994 - February, 1999). Professor Arigbede joined the services of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta in March, 1999 as Lecturer II and rose through the ranks to become a Professor of Ruminant Nutrition / Forage Science in October, 2012.He has taught several courses in the area of ruminant nutrition, dairy science and nutrition, forage conservation and utilization, forage seed production technology and range management. Also, he has supervised over 150 undergraduate projects, 12 M. Agric. dissertations and 5 Ph. D. theses. He has authored and co-authored over 80 Journal articles and 16 conference proceedings.
