In this article, we utilize document analysis to define appropriate methods and models for evaluating and assessing professional competencies. To identify professional competencies, the Delphi technique and semi-structured interviews with key experts in the field of higher education were employed. Additionally, the findings from the Delphi method were coded and categorized using the inductive content analysis technique. Sampling was conducted purposefully among key experts. The results indicated consensus among experts on 10 key professional competencies: specialized knowledge in agricultural sciences, farm management, application of modern agricultural technologies, analysis of business plans, knowledge of agricultural diseases and pests, agricultural economics and marketing, problem-solving and decision-making skills, teamwork and communication skills, leadership and management, and principles of entrepreneurship. It can be concluded that in the field of agriculture, students must acquire a wide range of competencies and professional skills to succeed effectively in the job market. These competencies are generally divided into two categories: specialized competencies, which include expertise in agricultural sciences, farm management, the use of modern agricultural technologies, business plan analysis, knowledge of agricultural pests and diseases, and agricultural economics and marketing; and general competencies, which include problem-solving and decision-making, teamwork and communication skills, leadership and management, and principles of entrepreneurship.
