Experimental field and DIPOZ

  • Experimental field

    The FASF Experimental Field is a company set up by the Faculty, which has at its disposal 74 hectares of agricultural land allocated to the University by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy for the Faculty's core activities: practical and field teaching for students, research and applied work.

  • DIPOZ

    To make better use of its human and technical resources, in March 2002 the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and Food decided to expand its activities by creating a self-sustaining research and education centre, with the main aim of building an institution that works in agriculture, with more research activities to improve the practical knowledge of students and farmers.
