SCHOOL YEAR 1972~~973
PRE F ACE
The accompanying ANNUAL REPORT is the third such report
on the operations of the Mountain state Agricultural College'to
be submitted by the College President to His Excellency the Pre
sident of the Philippines pursuant to the provisions of
R.
A.
5923 which made the school a ~orporate educational institution.
The Report is titled: "QUEST FOR RELEVANCE"
to
under
score the ~irection and continuing effort exerted by the College
in making its various academic programs, production projects,
researches, and extension activities more socially and economic
ally meaningful to the people.
The instructional innovations
introduced and the strategies of administration and supervision
adopted were all designed to more realistically gear-and make
the various programs end projects of the College relevant to the
needs and demand for economic and social development within its
,service area.
It waS the unanimous belief of the faculty that if the
College is to maximize its contributions to the overall develop
ment of the country and ?roduce significant impacts on the so
cial and economic conditions of the people of the provinces
which i t serves, i t must start producing these impacts upon its
students and their fe,miJ,ies.
Hence, the first target of the
innovative practices introduced during the school year under
report were those proble~s related or pertaining to course con
tents and procedures in agricultural instruction and the manage
ment practices used in the production projects and supervised
farming prog~ams of students.
The belief of the faculty has been more than justified
by the outcomes.

o V E R V I E W
School year 1972-1973 differed from previous school yearf
in that i t was greatly 8ffected and influenced by two historic
ally significant ev~nts, ne,mely: (1) the July-A.ugust, 1972
flood which inundated for 46 days the Central Luzon provinces
.
and the lake towns of Rizal and LBguna, and caused killer-land
slides in Baguio City and Benguet province, and (2) the procla
mation of martial law for the entire country on September 21,
1972.
The first event was catastrophic.
It not only caused the
suspension of classes for two weeks but also completely des
troyed tq.e standing cTops.of the College at the time valued at
P120,OOO.
It also erodee, c8rried away or covered with stones
and sand approximately three hectares of the school farm along
the Balili river resulting in a prDperty loss or damage of
PSOO.OOO.oo, more or less.
...I
The second event further caused interruptions in the
academic and production programs of the College for anoth8r
three weeks, from September 25 to October 13, 1972, r0sulting ~n
additional losses in crops that ~ere abandoned or neglected
during the suspension of classes.
Notwithstanding the disrup~
tions and the losses and damages sustained by the College D~d
students as a consequence of the two events, there were positive
-
2
impa~ts produced upon the students~ faculty and employees ~ll
terms of social attitudes, behavior and increased awareness of
their social duties an~ responsibilities which more than com
pensate for the losseG.
Those changes, it is believed, were t~0
results mainly of the constructive, reformative and restitutive
intents of Proclamation No. 1081, and are reflected in.the out
comes of the various programs, projects and activities.
Notable
amone these outcomes were:
1. Increased an~ intensified production activities re~
Bulting in better agriCUltural skills training fo~
students and a gross production of approximately
P500,OOO from.which the College realized a net Bh~re
of P98.613.22. This net income is more than double
the net school income in school year 1971-1972.
2. More pro~uctive use of leisure time by students~
teachers, employees and officials who all participated
in the food production campaign and beautificatidn
drive st~rted by the First Lady.
3. Virtual elimin3tion of disciplin~ry cases among stu
dents, teach0Ts and employees, and their transforma
tion into m00el citizens of the community.
4. Grsater involvement in civic action work and in ae ri
cultural extension activities within th~ province.
5. Improv~d school grounds, cleaner surroundings and mOre
.
- - - - -

responsible use of school facilities.
The foregoing outcomes will be further elabor~ted upon ~ll
the succeeding body of the report.

tional a~riculture stufonts as follows: (1) Phase ~
Field laboratory stuCe.
First ye~r students were
given only 100 squRre mcturs of 10n1 on which to
plant different crops on an experimcnt~l basis.
Old
and new methods of pl~nt cultu~e were compared for
Greqter le~rning eff~ctiv~ness. (2) PhAse 2 - Di
rected project st~~e.
Second yetr students were
~iven up to 500 GquRrc meters on which to grow the
crops of their choice selActed on the basis of their
experiencgs in phase 1.
(3) Phase 3 - Sunervised f~Ym
in~ str-:'fe.
Third ye'T .stu.:lcmts wore given. up to ICJO
square meters to form.
They made their own pIROG
with minimum sUf0rvisioo from the tc~chers, and de
cided what crops to 1rcw, and ~h3t fertilizers and
insecticides to usc Dnf others.
Fqrm record keepin~
was emphasized here.
(4) Phase 4 - Semi-commercia]
farm enterprise.
Here the fourth yenr students (~nd
some selected thirrt ye~r students) were given one-hRlf
hectare to cUl"~iv'?"te in co. realistically business-lik"
manner.
Input requir8ments were either ?upplied by
the school or by priv~te financiers.

HIGHLIGHTS OF !'~CCOHPLISHMENTS
As a result of th~ n9W strat~cies followed and the inoo
v~tions introduced in r:tdministr~tiv~ practices, instructional
procedures, and project man~~cmcnt te~hniques, several si~ni:i-
cant ~ccomplishments have been achieved durinG the school year.
Easily the most outstanding of th~sc accomplishments were the
following:
A. In tructional area:
..
." .- . .,
Vocational agriculture stu~~nt8 b0came more aware of the
-6
need of keepinc; o.ccurate rocords in connection with theL..
supervised f0Trning programs.
This wns iMpressed upon them anG
they responziod well to, thr.; rcquircr.1c:nt that they suomi t for
checkin~ occasionally their records to their teqchers and to
the internal auditor, particularly vhen they h~rvest; sell
their crops and submit 'the sh~re of the school. The economic,
social and educational im~~cts of these accomplishments were
reflected in (1) more income ctcTiv0~ from the,farminp. procrams
of the students, and (2) more aGcur~te cost of production d~to
have been confiled and are now te~~ily avnilable for instruc
tional l;l1r~'o,ses :,md for 'iisserninD.ticn to f <>xmers.
The cornmercializaticn aJl)ro(~ch of managing and oper,::\\tinc;
agricultural production projects resulted i~ a total net pro
du<":tion income of "2'98,581 from <3.11 ;~l·oject.s.
This sum is nonrly
double tqat of the previous ye~rf8 income.
1. An unpreceden'ted inc:r~::;.sc of P62,l13 in the net incot:Ie
of the animal projects w~s realized due mainly to~
(a) operntion of tho rrojGcts on 3 self-supportinG
basis with a revolving fund of P5,OOO which th8 project
teacher used for the purchase of feeds, medicines and
new stocks; (b) better p~osram and management praG
tices; and (c) 8st~blishment of a commercial size

2. Successfully demonstr~tud on a 1.5 hectare lot th~t q
school ve~~table production project ran and managed
like e real comm8rcial f3rm ~s not only profitable but
also a positive an~ convincing instructional dG~ice
to t8~ch students the skills and the economic advan
t~ges of farming.
From ,the 1.5 hectAre lot a ~ross
production of ?17,OOO p~s realized, or a net of P5,OOC
,
'
per hectare per year.
3. Proved that grO',vil1S flmrurs for market is :?refit::l.b::'~,
Startin~ immodi~tcly after the floods of July and
AUGust t 1972, th~) chr;{Gnnthemum pro ject of the ochool
earned an income of more than ?5,OOO at the close of
the school year from.only 150 square meters of ~round

The success of this

PROBLEMS AND DIFFICULTIES
'.".....
The problems a~d difficulties of the College boil down to two
types: (1) financial, and.(2) land prob~ems.
Classroom buildings, laboratories, shops and the personnel
housing accom~odations remain inaoequate to this day.
The school
does not have (1) a home tec~nology building. (2) agricultural
science building, (3) biological and natural science building, (4)
engineering builc1tng and E':uimal science building.
It also needs two
large clor~itories, GBch ~ith a capacity of 500 ~tudents, for both
male and female stu9cnts.
Faculty an~ ~mployee housing remain inade
qua"te 'and mi!"erablc.
Host .)f the faculty cottages arc dilapidated
an~'unfit for human habit2tion. The College needs more than
?5,000'1000.00 nithin a fiY(~-'Ye2r period to provide the physicc.l fa
cilitics enumerated above.
The la~d question has boon a prohlern of the school even before
World w~r I I . But i t worsened after PresiAent Magsaysey issue~
Procl~m~tion 209 releasing 809 hect~res for distribution to arrli
cants.
