Study Notes
Agrarian Reform in the Philippines
- Agrarian reform rectifies the agricultural system, crucial for the Philippine economy as half the population is employed in agriculture.
- It focuses on the connection between production and land distribution, and the economic/political class structures underlying these relationships.
- Colonial history significantly impacted the Philippines' agrarian problems.
Land Ownership under Spanish Rule
- Spanish colonization introduced pueblo agriculture, organizing rural communities into pueblos but not allowing individual land ownership.
- Filipinos cultivated lands owned by the Spanish king, paying tributes in agricultural products.
- Through the Law of the Indies, religious orders, military rewards, and encomiendas (managed lands) were organized giving Filipinos no land rights.
- Encomienda system allowed encomenderos to extract resources and services from Filipinos making them pay low prices for products.
- The hacienda system developed in the 19th-century, focused on world exports where Filipinos became tied to the global market while haciendas were large, privately owned estates.
Land Ownership under American Rule
- The Americans recognized landlessness as a social issue and attempted land reforms.
- The Philippines Bill of 1902 established land ownership limits.
- The Torrens system was introduced for accurate land records (Act No. 496)
- The homestead program (1903) allowed tenant farmers to own land.
- But the system did not significantly improve landownership; many Filipinos remained landless or were forced into tenancy.
- The Sakdal Uprising (1935) was a peasant rebellion caused by land inequality.
Post-War Agrarian Interventions
- Rehabilitation efforts focused on addressing land problems after World War II.
- Republic Act 34 established tenant/landlord 70-30 sharing arrangements.
- The Land Settlement Development Corporation (LASEDECO), under President Quirino, was established.
- President Magsaysay pursued comprehensive land reforms and gained congress support for Republic Act No. 1199, or the Agricultural Tenancy Act. This governed relationships between landholders and tenants
- The Agricultural Tenancy Commission and the Agricultural Credit and Cooperative Financing Administration were established to strengthen tenancy rights and aid farmer access to credit.
Agrarian Reform under Marcos
- President Marcos implemented various land reform decrees, including the Code of Agrarian Reform, during martial law.
- These reforms aimed to end sharecropping, improve peasant's rights and redistribute agricultural land. Â
Agrarian Reform under subsequent administrations
- Subsequent leaders like President Macapagal, Aquino, Arroyo, and others introduced measures like the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law (CARL) and its subsequent extensions, intended to further address the issue of land tenure.
- These administrations attempted to redistribute land, improve farmer rights, but faced challenges such as bureaucratic obstacles and resistance from landowners.
