In order to keep improving the academic experience of students and teachers of the Cerrito Agricultural School and, in this way, continue betting on a promising future for young people from rural environments, the construction of the second dairy plant with its respective effluent treatment at the facilities of the educational institution in Benjamín Aceval, Chaco is currently underway.
