History

Oryol Agricultural Institute was founded in Oryol in 1975. In 1995, a decision was made to transform the institute into the Oryol State Agricultural Academy. Officially, the transformation took place on 10 February 1996.^[3] In 1999, the academy was transformed into the Oryol State Agrarian University.^[4]

For many years (1982-1986, 1994–2008, 2010–2016) Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Nikolai Vasilyevich Parakhin, was the rector of the university.^[5]^[6] After his death, on 15 June 2016, the Oryol State Agrarian University received the name of N. V. Parakhin.^[7]
