Located in Montpellier, Occitania, it is one of the three schools of L'Institut Agro, alongside Institut Agro Rennes-Angers and Institut Agro Dijon.
The institution traces its origins to 1848 and is one of the oldest agricultural schools in France. It holds the status of grand établissement under the supervision of the French Ministry of Agriculture. It is accredited by the Commission des titres d'ingénieur (CTI) to award the diplôme d'ingénieur (Master's level).
The school operates three campuses in the Occitania and Lozère regions and manages two experimental agricultural estates. With a strong focus on Mediterranean and tropical agricultural systems, it hosts 22% international students and maintains academic partnerships in over 30 countries.
