These stations were established basically for researching, testing, validating, demonstrating, and disseminating improved technologies. In addition, the University operates in several farmers’ training centers and peasant associations in a number of districts (<em>woredas</em>) in both western and eastern Hararghe Zones. Kersa is a health research center whereas Erer Guda is a camel research center.
