Environment Friendly Farming Practices (EFFPs) are methods toward ensuring sustainable development through the use of environmental and soil conservation practices. The study examined the extent of usage of selected EFFPs in Ekiti State. Multi stage sampling procedure was used to randomly select 200 respondents from farming communities in the State. Primary data were collected through the use of interview schedule. Data obtained were analysed and presented using Chi square, Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation and ANOVA. EFFPs always practised by the farmers was mulching ( = 2.81) while the least practised was terracing ( =1.09). Majority (61%) of the farmers obtained information on EFFPs through radio and television. The main contribution of the State government to environment friendly farming practices was the provision of information. There existed significant relationships between income (r= -0.21), farming experience (r= -0.24), farm size (r= -0.23), age (r= -0.15), and the extent of usage of EFFPs. There is need for improvement in extension services through enhanced roles of extension agents in the adoption and usage of environment-friendly farming practices in the State in order to enhance sustainable agricultural practices and environment.
