The Zamorano University Enterprises are the production, transformation and commercialization units where our students carry out their Learning-by Doing program. This program is an integral part of the student training and demands half-time dedication. The University Enterprises provide the physical resources and create the actual corporate and business environment where the students develop the abilities, skills and deductive knowledge that prepare them for their professional lives. The University Enterprises are the living laboratory where the students apply what they learn in the classroom to the real world and in doing so, improve their learning process.

The University Enterprises are grouped into three main areas: Agricultural Production, Livestock Production and Processing Plants. There is also a Marketing and Sales unit where the students participate actively with clients and the market.

The agricultural area includes Horticulture, Fruticulture, Forestry and Grains and Seeds.

The livestock production area includes milk cattle, beef cattle and swine units and an Agricultural and Irrigation Machinery support unit.

The processing plants group includes dairy, meat, animal feed and seeds, horticulture and wood processing plants.

The activity of the University Enterprises revolves around two basic components: technical and business. To this regard, the University Enterprises are a practical laboratory where the student learns the best production, processing, marketing and integral management practices of an agricultural business.

Each business unit follows an agricultural and agroindustrial business plan, an operating and capital budget, and is run as a business, with financial and educational goals.
