Bohol agrarian reform beneficiaries get titles for subdivided land
LAND titles for a partitioned 51.93-hectare farm area in the town of Carmen in Bohol were recently distributed to 40 beneficiaries, according to the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR).
In a statement on Sunday, the agency said the agrarian reform beneficiaries received electronic certificates of land ownership award or e-CLOAs.
One of the e-CLOA recipients was 86-year-old Andiana Baquilid, who has been tilling the land for years.
“The DAR is doubling its effort to fortify our farmers’ land tenure security so that they can pass these lands to the next generation,” DAR Central Visayas Director Romeo L. Reyes said.
“We would continue to support them in making these lands productive,” he added.
The partition of farmlands under the government’s land reform program is undertaken through the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling Project. It determines exact boundaries for individual owners of previously awarded lands under collective titles.
