How Harper Adams handles TOEFL scores
The iBT is the only form of TOEFL accepted, and MyBest scores are not accepted. TOEFL is one of the tests that must be taken within the two years before your start date; an older result means a new test. The page does not give an institution code.
For comparison, the same page sets IELTS Academic at 6.0 with no less than 5.5 for undergraduates and 6.5 with no less than 5.5 for postgraduates.

If your TOEFL score is below Harper Adams's level
The page does not describe conditional offers or pre-sessional entry with TOEFL. It also accepts the NCUK Password test at the IELTS-equivalent levels, if you need another option.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Harper Adams programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
