The college, established in 1965, has been a center for training Ghanaians in various agricultural disciplines, aiming to support and develop the country’s agricultural sector by educating and producing skilled professionals in the field.

It is notably situated in a community where agricultural activities are predominant. Converting the college to a fully fledged university will be historic, as it would be the first university in Southern Volta.
