HISTORY OF AGRARIAN

03
REFORM
 For a long period of time, the agrarian system of Philippines was being
controlled by the large landlords. The small farmers in Philippines were
struggling for their rights to land and other natural resources.
 The implementation of Agrarian reforms proceeded at a very slow pace.
This was due to the lack of political will. The redistribution of land was
also very slow.
SLIDESMANIA.C

BY THE SPANISH
 Land during the Spanish Era were owned and controlled by the friars (a brother and a member of one of the
mendicant orders founded in the twelfth or thirteenth century). The land distribution was done in the form of
rewards to the peasants because of their loyalty and faithful to the Spanish officials.

BY THE AMERICANS
 Land that owned by the Friars were sold to those families who can afford to buy big tracts of lands which later
on became haciendas.

MACAPAGAL
ADMINISTRATION
 Agricultural Land Reform Code (RA 3844) was a major advancement of land reform in the Philippines and was
enacted in 1963 under President Diosdado Macapagal. It abolished tenancy and established a leasehold system
in which farmers paid fixed rentals to landlords, rather than a percentage of harvest. It also established the Land
Bank of the Philippines to help with land reform, particularly the purchase of agricultural estates for division
and resale to small landholders, and the purchase of land by the agricultural lessee.

WAYS BY WHICH THE GOVERNMENT CA

ACQUIRE LANDHOLDINGS FOR

12 •DISTRIBUTION

•
UNDER
Compulsory acquisition (CA), a mandatory CARP
land acquisition by the State of all private agricultural
lands in accordance with the procedure as described in Section 16 of RA 6657. This mode of
acquisition is undertaken if the landowner fails to comply with the requirements for VOS or VLT;
Offer to sell (Voluntary Offer to Sell), a mode of land acquisition where landowners come forward
and voluntarily offer their agricultural lands for CARP coverage. These transactions are exempt
from payment of capital gains tax and other taxes and fees;

• Voluntary Land Transfer/Direct Payment Scheme, a direct transaction between the landowner of an agricultural
land covered by CARP and the qualified beneficiaries of such land. Transactions under this mode are not
exempt from payment of capital gains taxes and other fees (Sec. 20 & 21, RA 6657);
• Rice and Corn lands (Operation Land Transfer) under PD 27 and EO 228). Operation land transfer is a mode by
which the ownership of tenanted rice and corn lands are transferred to tenant beneficiaries.
SLIDESMANIA.C

NOTICE OF COVERAGE

13
 Letter informing the landowner that his land is covered by CARP and is subject to
acquisition and distribution to beneficiaries
 Inform landowner of his rights under the law including the right to retain 5 hectares
 A Notice of Coverage initiates the compulsory acquisition and distribution of private
agricultural lands and is considered by DAR as one such proceedings referred to by
CARPER.

DAR had begun fast-tracking the preliminary work leading to the issuance of NOCs in 2012 leading in a
substantial increase in NOCs issued to landholdings above 10 hectares. But because of limitations placed by
RA 9700, NOCs for small landholdings 10 hectares and below began to be issued only starting April 2013.

v
SLIDESMANIA.C

 In 2012, the DAR was able to issue 25,841 NOCs covering 239,337 hectares for landholdings above 10
hectares.
 For 2013, 30,558 NOCs were issued covering 281,192 hectares
 Among those not yet issued NOCs are some 4,397 landholdings covering 43,676 hectares for which DAR has
already requested certified true copies of title from the Land Registration Authority.
 In addition, there are 7,058 landholdings covering 69,339 hectares which are problematic and thus, no NOC has
yet been issued. These are the lands for which DAR has encountered problems like missing titles, unreadable
titles, chop-chop titles, etc.

v
SLIDESMANIA.C
