𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐦 𝐦𝐨 𝐛𝐚?

Number 1 sa hanay ng mga DAR Offices sa buong bansa ang DAR South Cotabato sa ilalim ng SPLIT Project!

Pero ano nga ba ang ibig sabihin nito?

Ibig sabihin, libu-libong ektarya ng lupa sa lalawigan ang naisailalim sa parcelization at individual titling, na nagbibigay sa mga agrarian reform beneficiaries ng mas matibay na karapatan sa kanilang lupang sinasaka at mas magandang pagkakataon para sa kanilang kinabukasan.

Manatiling nakatutok para sa mga kaalamang dapat mong malaman, at manatiling OnRaDAR!
