Sa pamamagitan ng Project SPLIT (Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling), mabilis at sistematikong naibigay kay Ginang Lumanog at sa iba pang ARB ang kanilang sariling e-title. Ang proyektong ito ang nagpabilis sa proseso ng pagpapatitulo upang ganap nang makuha ng bawat magsasaka ang tiyak at legal na pagmamay-ari sa kani-kanilang bahagi ng lupa.

Nagpaabot ng taos-pusong pasasalamat si Ginang Lumanog sa ngalan ng lahat ng ARBs sa Western Visayas noong ginanap ang ceremonial distribution ng e-titles/CLOAs at BARC pledge of commitment noong Oktubre 6, 2026 sa Iloilo National High School.

ILOILO CITY- A positive shift from debt-burdened tenants to self-reliant landowners unfolds for 2,935 Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs) from the province of Iloilo as the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) distributes 2,797 Electronic Titles and Certificate of Land Ownership Award on October 6, 2026 at Iloilo National High School.

Agrarian Reform Secretary Condrado M. Estrella III led the momentous ceremonial distribution, giving ARBs security of land ownership leading to enhanced financial capacity and social equity.

“Turuan natin ang ating mga anak magtanim, mag-alaga ng hayop at magmahal sa agrikultura. Madali na magtanim ngayon dahil sa mga makabago at siyantipikong paraan ng pagtatanim dahil kapag umunlad ang buhay ng ating mga magsasaka, uunlad ang buong bansa [Let us teach our children to plant, raise livestock, and love agriculture. Planting is easy nowadays because of modern and scientific farming methods, because when the lives of our farmers improve, the whole nation prospers].” Secretary Estrella said.

For Rita Lumanog, Agrarian Reform Beneficiary from San Enrique, Iloilo, the titles are not just paper, it is a symbol for a brighter future of their families. She expresses her heartfelt thanks to Secretary Estrella and President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. for supporting the agriculture sector and for giving importance to all the farmers.

Meanwhile, Barangay Agrarian Reform Committee (BARC) chairman participated in the BARC Pledge of Commitment reiterating their support for the implementation of DAR programs and initiatives.

Secretary Condrado M. Estrella III emphasized that the work of the government does not stop after the distribution of land titles. He said that the government will provide farm to market roads, irrigation, farm machineries and fertilizer to improve the lives of every farmer.

The ceremony was attended by top DAR officials, partner agencies and local leaders. Their presence highlighted an integrated determination to empower the local farmers and to fast-track rural development.
