    Study Notes

    Philippine History - Agrarian Reform

    • Post War Intervention:
      • President Manuel Roxas: Republic Act No. 34 established a 70-30 land sharing arrangement between tenants and landlords, reducing interest rates on loans to 6% or less. Republic Act No. 55 protected tenants from unfair evictions.
      • President Elpidio Quirino: Created the Land Settlement Development Corporation (LASEDECO) to accelerate land redistribution, but only 400 families benefited.
      • President Ramon Magsaysay: LASEDECO evolved into the National Resettlement and Rehabilitation Administration (NARRA). Republic Act No. 1199 established the Agricultural Tenancy Act, regulating relations between landowners and tenant farmers. The Agricultural Credit and Cooperative Financing Administration (ACCFA) supported farmers financially.
      • President Diosdado Macapagal: The Agricultural Land Reform Code (Republic Act No. 3844) aimed to free tenants, improve productivity, and distribute public land, emphasizing farmer independence and equity.
      • President Ferdinand Marcos: Presidential Decree No. 27 (Code of Agrarian Reform) became the core of agrarian reform in the Philippines, systematically transferring land from landowners to tenant farmers through Operation Land Transfer. Republic Act No. 6839 formalized the Code of Agrarian Reforms.
      • Republic Act No. 6399: Created an agrarian reform special account to accelerate the agrarian program.

    Post-1986 Agrarian Reform

    • President Corazon Aquino: Issued Presidential Proclamation 131 and Executive Order 229 outlining her land reform program in 1987. In 1988, the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law (CARL), or Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP), was passed. CARP aimed at redistributing public and private agricultural lands to landless farmers and farmworkers, regardless of tenure arrangements.
