THE Department of Agrarian Reform in Caraga region (DAR-13) is set to release 2,690 certificates of land ownership award (CLOAs) to farmer-beneficiaries on Tuesday, Nov. 12, covering approximately 4,077 hectares of agricultural land.
DAR-13 said the distribution will take place at the provincial capitol grounds in Prosperidad town, Agusan del Sur province.
Some 2,480 agrarian reform beneficiaries from Agusan del Sur and Surigao del Sur will receive their land titles.
The CLOAs are part of the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling (SPLIT) project, a joint initiative between the Philippine government and the World Bank.
The event will be led by DAR Undersecretary Rowena Taduran and DAR-13 Regional Director Merlita Capinpuyan.
The DAR 13 said 2,048 beneficiaries from Agusan del Sur and 432 from Surigao del Sur are set to receive the land titles.
It added that the distribution of CLOAs is a direct result of the directives from President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and DAR Secretary Conrado Estrella III to fast-track the implementation of the agrarian reform program.
