Agrobusiness Division

Bridging Academia and Enterprise

Welcome to the Agrobusiness Division of Midlands State University. We are not just a collection of farms; we are a dynamic network of commercial agro-industrial hubs. Our mission is simple: to bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world agricultural impact, driving innovation, productivity, and sustainable growth.

We operate four distinct hubs, each strategically developed to leverage its unique agro-ecological potential. Together, they form a powerful engine for Zimbabwe’s agrobusiness sector.
