Summary : The study aimed to assess the resource capabilities of five agricultural colleges in Region XII, Philippines, and to determine the relationship between certain variables under physical, human and financial resources and quality of agriculture graduates. It further sought to determine the congruency or incongruency between graduate and instructor respondents' perceptions of certain aspects of instruction and between instructor and administrator respondents' perceptions of certain aspects of administration. A total of 172 agriculture graduates and 58 agriculture instructors from the said colleges were randomly selected as respondents. The administrators of the same and the employers/supervisors of the graduate respondents were included by complete enumeration. Findings revealed that books and technical agriculture reading materials, laboratory room space, instructional facilities and equipment were inadequate, based on the criteria for minimum standards formulated by the Technical Panel for Agricultural Education (TPAE) of the Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC).
