College of Agriculture and Food Science

The College of Agriculture and Food Science (CAFS) is the premier institution of higher learning in agriculture and food science in the country. It offers undergraduate and post-graduate curricular programs that promote science-based, relevant, and sustainable agriculture and food science. It is focused on bringing primary food to the market and its consumers in response to the rising necessity for agribusiness.

The Bachelor of Science in Agriculture degree of CAFS is recognized by the ASEAN University Network-Quality Assurance (AUN-QA) while the Professional Regulation Commission and Professional Regulatory Board of Agriculture has awarded UPLB as the Top Performing School in Agriculture after its BSA graduates came out with near, if not, 100 passing rates in the licensure examination in agriculture.

The then CA is a recipient of the 1977 Ramon Magsaysay Award for International Understanding in recognition of its quality teaching and research and for fostering the sharing of knowledge in modernizing Southeast Asian agriculture.
