Farmers are seeking updates on the implementation status and accomplishments of a World Bank-financed project that is aimed at expediting the distribution of farmland to farmers across the country.
Launched in January 2020, the project, Support to Parcelization of Land for Individual Titling , is financed through a $370-million loan from the World Bank to split or subdivide Collective Certificates of Land Ownership Award covering over 1.3 million hectares of property, which was earlier turned over to about 750,000 agrarian reform beneficiaries .
For this year, DAR has allocated P6.1 billion or 42 percent of its P14.3-billion total budget for SPLIT implementation. The KMP, however, asserts that free land distribution and comprehensive support services program, and not SPLIT will be effective in uplifting the status of ARBs.
