MISSION

The Department of Agribusiness exists to develop safe and sound scientific discoveries in economical agricultural production and marketing for aspiring regional and constituent entrepreneurs in Africa and elsewhere. The Department believes that true education points back to the Almighty and Redeemer of mankind.

PHILOSOPHY

From early simple societies to the modern complex interdependent system, humankind’s activities revolved around and are still centred on one main resource which is paramount for the sustenance of life: land. God Himself, the creator, endowed man with abilities to control the environment and placed man to purposefully and deliberately harness the natural resources for his (man’s) existence. In addition to this responsibility, humankind is blessed with physical, spiritual and mental abilities to decide on proper ways to bring honour and glory to God through faithful stewardship.
Agribusiness, as a field of knowledge, is current and relevant in addressing the source of humankind’s problems, that is, the production of food and preservation technologies. These two have been and still are a global concern. The study of Agribusiness, therefore, must lead to profitable ventures for individuals, organizations and the global economy at large. Agribusiness is the engine that fuels all other disciplines, and it is worth studying.

OBJECTIVES

The Department of Agribusiness aims at developing highly competent scientist and agricultural producers to serve the region and global constituencies in areas such as: Education, Economic Agricultural Production and Industry. This is done in the spirit as commissioned to Solusi University by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the provisions of the Service Charter granted by the Government of the Republic of Zimbabwe. The main objectives of the Agribusiness department are:

  1. To provide an academic program with sufficient depth such that its graduates can meet the challenges of the job market and even remain competitive and qualified to pursue higher degrees of their choice without any prejudice.
  2. To equip students with skills to venture into profitable agricultural business from “anywhere to everywhere.
  3. To produce graduates that are not just employable but will become employers.
