Simple research units (S.U.)<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1697019097491{padding-top: 30px !important;}”]The experimentation sector is divided into seven Simple Units (S.U.):<\/p>\n

\u2022 Agronomy S.U. and Economy S.U., combined in the Agro-Environment and Competitiveness Complex Unit (C.U.);
\n\u2022 Pomology S.U. and Viticulture-Enology S.U., combined in the Arboreal Cultivation C.U.;
\n\u2022 Analysis Laboratories S.U.;
\n\u2022 Development of Animal Products S.U.;
\n\u2022 Zootechnics S.U.;<\/p>\n

The experimentation personnel, carrying out projects in which applied research and production are closely linked, consists of forty-five people: researchers, technicians and workmen. Among them, one fifth are young employees that have joined IAR in recent years, as evidence of gradual staff renewal, according to the Institute\u2019s vision of research activities and experimentation projected towards the future.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1643029021948{margin-top: 4% !important;margin-bottom: 4% !important;padding-top: 4% !important;padding-bottom: 4% !important;}”][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1637681016778{padding-right: 6% !important;padding-left: 6% !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” gap=”10″][vc_column_inner el_class=”boxUnita” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1643029027863{padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;background-color: #f7f9fb !important;}” offset=”vc_col-lg-3″][vc_single_image image=”10768″ img_size=”550×270″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1697019125641{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
