Initially, the Yaroslavl SAI was located in the building of the city school No. 43. The first students of the institute were boys and girls from the villages, as well as veterans of the Great Patriotic War. In August 1957, the Yaroslavl Agricultural Institute was transferred to Voroshilov (now - Ussuriysk), Primorsky Krai. Many teachers and students from Yaroslavl went to the Far East too. Now it's the Primorskaya State Agricultural Academy. In April 1977, a branch of the Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy was established in Yaroslavl.
