In conclusion Agricultural and Biosystem Engineering considered one of the most vital

professions in the world, it solves complex AB engineering problems and creates unique ideas

that will benefit the entire community. Based on the five (5) graduates that have been

interviewed, their current job are aligned in the field of AB engineering, yet it needs to exert

great endeavor and lot of time in order to find a career that will certainly apply and develop the

fundamental principles and knowledge that they have gained throughout the entire college years

in the field of ABE. Based on the five respondents they encountered competitions in other

engineering fields, instead of AB engineer are being employed in that position, they

acknowledged other engineering fields in that kind of work position. Respondents stated that the

ABE field is lack of recognition and appreciation in the country, though there is a law, the R.A

10915 (an act strengthen, modernizing and aligning the practice of ABE in the country into

internationally recognized) still that is not sufficient to be known the ABE profession in different

variation of workplace. On the other hand, the rapid growth of population is one of the most

challenging parts in the field of Agricultural and Biosystem Engineering, as it increases its

number, the agricultural land is being converted into industrial and residential areas, which

incline to decrease the productivity of the farm products that can lead to the market scarcity, as

one of the scopes of ABE is to uphold the food security, the farm productivity must be increased

exponentially to meet the day-to-day necessities of every individual, using the modern

technologies, machineries, and equipment’s are very significant to sustain the farm power.

Based on the information gathered, most of the graduates of AB engineer at the age of

45 above now, are experiencing struggles in looking for a job, because employer mostly

chooses the age at 20-30, which sometimes tends to lose their enthusiasm in the field of ABE.
At the end, Agricultural and Biosystems engineers are have unique knowledge of

mathematics, biological and physical sciences, and engineering principles to solve problems

relating to the production, handling, and processing of biological materials for food, feed, fiber

and fuel; the preservation of natural resources and environment quality; and the design and

production of machine systems. It can serve a broad range of career interests and can provide

excellent career opportunities for everyone from diverse backgrounds. ABE is not just a

profession or a work instead it stands at the crossroads of the past and the future with a heavy

responsibility towards increasing agricultural productivity to feed the growing population

considering not only the country but rather the whole world.
