CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 1

I. PROGRAM FEATURES AND CORE TARGETS

Legal Basis
Republic Act No. 6657, otherwise known as the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform
Law of 1988, was signed into law by then President Corazon C. Aquino on June
10, 1988.

Salient Features of CARP

• Addresses the age-old issue of social injustice arising from the

inequitable distribution of ownership of agricultural lands

• Covers the redistribution of all agricultural lands regardless of

tenurial arrangement or commodity produced

• Founded on the land-to-the-tiller principle

• Provides for the security of tenure of landless farmers and

farmworkers over the land they till

• Provides a beneficiary award ceiling of 3 hectares and

landowner retention limit of 5 hectares

• Provides a 30-year repayment period for the agrarian reform

beneficiaries (ARBs) at 6% per annum

• Provides just compensation for landowners

• Provides a term limit for land distribution

• Provides for the implementation of leasehold pursuant to RA

3844 in tenanted lands under the retention limit and lands not yet acquired
under the Act

• Provides for the administrative adjudication of cases to

facilitate resolution of such cases that will arise from the implementation of
the Act

• Provides for the delivery of support services to both ARBs and

dispossessed landowners

• Envisions the transformation of landless tillers into responsible

and progressive landowning farmers contributing significantly to national
economic development, and the dispossessed landowners investing their
land compensation proceeds to promote industrialization; and

• Creates the Agrarian Reform Fund as the source of funding for

CARP
 CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 2

Key Strategies of Implementation

• Pursuance of land acquisition and distribution (LAD) and

leasehold
• Fair and just delivery of agrarian justice to all affected parties
• Delivery of support services designed to build ARB capabilities
for group action and cooperation, improved agribusiness productivity, access
to basic services and self-reliance
• Building/strengthening development partnerships with key
CARP publics
• Area-focused development
• Convergence and complementation among CARP
implementing agencies
• Creation of a policy environment conducive to rural agro-
industrialization

Major Program Services and Key Result Areas

A. Land Tenure Improvement Services
• Acquisition and distribution of agricultural lands to landless farmers and
farmworkers
• Implementation of non-land transfer schemes of tenure improvement such
as leasehold, production and profit-sharing, etc. in non-distributable lands
• Facilitation of just compensation to landowners
• Resolution of second generation problems
B. Agrarian Justice Delivery
• Provision of agrarian legal assistance to ARBs
• Resolution of agrarian law implementation cases
• Resolution of adjudication cases
C. Support Services Delivery for Program Beneficiaries Development

• Establishment of viable agrarian reform communities (ARCs), ARC

Connectivity Clusters (ARCCs) and Special Agrarian Reform Areas
(SARCs)
• Strengthening of the social infrastructure and ARB capacity building
CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 3
• Facilitation and enhancement of ARBs’ access to economic and physical
infrastructure support services, including pre- and post-production
extension and marketing services; and basic social services
• Development of ARBs into agribusiness entrepreneurs

Core Targets

• Land acquisition and distribution of about 5.16 million hectares of

agricultural lands for DAR and 3.84 million hectares for DENR.

• Land tenure security to about 4 million DAR ARBs (3 million land

titleholders; 1 million leaseholders)
• Launching of 2,000 Agrarian Reform Communities (ARCs)

• Transformation of about 3 million landless farmers from tenant or

farmworker status into responsible landowners and agribusiness entrepreneurs

II. SITUATIONER: ASSESSING THE LAST 21 ½ YEARS OF CARP

CARP Performance

Of the 10 million hectares arable lands, 9 million hectares are covered by CARP,
both by DAR and DENR. For DAR alone, if it is to distribute 5.163 million
hectares to about 3 million ARBs, it would directly benefit 15 million persons in
the rural areas based on the assumption that one ARB equals one household
with an average size of five.

From 1972 to June 2009, under the DAR’s land tenure improvement program, it
has distributed 4.119 million hectares to 2.396 million ARBs that have directly
benefited over 11.98 million ARB household members. In addition, the leasehold
program has benefited around 6 million household members of leaseholders.

The various development interventions provided to ARBs of CARP under the

DAR’s support services delivery program yielded significant results as shown by
third party studies, to wit:

1. ARBs have accumulated more assets and investments in their

farms than non-ARBs
2. There was significant increase in aggregate agricultural land
productivity per hectare after the implementation of CARP due to intensive
land use and asset reform
3. Average land productivity among ARBs is more than twice than
that of non-ARBs
CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 4
4. Farm productivity in rice and corn lands in ARCs is much higher
than in non-ARCs
5. Poverty incidence among ARBs is significantly lower than those
of non-ARBs

Issues, Problems and Concerns

A. Land Tenure Improvement

CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 34
• Increased budgetary requirement to accelerate LAD
completion
• Persisting LO resistance
• Accuracy of LAD balance
• Relatively long LAD process
• Low percentage of land amortization collection
• Protection of program gains already achieved

B. Agrarian Justice Delivery

• Huge number of pending cases
• Understaffed DARAB and DAR Legal Offices
• Unattractive salary for lawyers

C. Support Service Delivery for Program Beneficiaries Development

• Limited ARB coverage of ARCs
• Limited ARC coverage of FAPs
• Limited economies of scale of ARCs for higher level services
• ARC development largely dependent on FAPs coverage
• Low ARB membership in farmers organizations/cooperatives
• Limited area available for optimizing convergence
among rural development providers
• Limited local budget appropriated for PBD/support services
delivery

III. OPERATIONAL DIRECTIVES FOR CY 2009

On Land Tenure Improvement

The DAR shall ensure the tenurial security of the program’s beneficiaries by
finishing all balances in Land Acquisition and Distribution (LAD) such as
Operation Land Transfer (OLT) under P.D. No. 27, redocumentation of
Distributed But Not Yet Documented (DNYD), generation of LAD Information
System (LADIS), subdivision and re-documentation of collective CLOA. It shall
likewise continue the processing of workable landholdings under VOS and
VLT; speed up the full implementation of ARB Profiling; and complete the
Inventory of CARP Scope Balance. In the meantime, it shall pursue intensified
efforts towards the approval of the retention of the compulsory acquisition
(CA) as the major mode of land distribution and acquisition.

On Delivery of Agrarian Justice

The DAR shall continue with its twin-program of Agrarian Legal Assistance and
Adjudication of Agrarian Cases to ensure the expeditious delivery of agrarian
justice.
CARP Briefer and Statistical Handbook 35

Agrarian Legal Assistance

It shall prioritize LAD-related, ageing, and flashpoint cases involving bigger

hectarage and more ARBs in the resolution/disposition of agrarian cases;
strengthen linkages between and among Legal, DARAB and Operations Group
to avoid recurrence of legal problems on LAD; utilize aggressively alternative
dispute resolution to reduce conflicts maturing into court cases; and maintain
zero balance/ no pending case at the end of the year.

Adjudication of Cases

It shall fast track the resolution of DARAB cases by prioritizing cases,

automation of database, and other relevant means; finalize the proposed
amendment of DARAB Rules of Procedures; and continue the aggressive
utilization of mediation and conciliation and other alternative dispute resolution
scheme to prevent disputes to become full blown cases.

On Program Beneficiaries Development

To ensure that land distribution is translated to tenurial improvement and

consequentially rural development, appropriate intervention packages shall be
provided to the Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs). The PBD directives
shall include, among others, the operationalization of the ARC Cluster
Development Strategy; the application of differentiated/area-specific need-
based interventions approach according to ARC level of development and
modality to include areas not covered by the ARC clusters; the expansion,
scaling-up and/or intensification of operations of existing competitive and
viable micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in agrarian reform areas;
the generation of some 100,000 additional jobs out of the agribusiness
ventures, enterprise-related projects and physical infrastructure in agrarian
reform areas and the establishment of new partnerships (local and foreign) to
expand PBD reach.
