Marcos (2nd from right), and Department of Agrarian Reform Secretary Conrado Estrella III (rightmost), are joined by LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo (4th from right) and Executive Vice President Alex A. Lorayes (leftmost) during the signing of the executive order imposing a one-year moratorium on payments for land amortization and interests of agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) at Malacañang Palace, Manila on 13 September 2022. State-run Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) welcomes the imposition of a year-long moratorium on land amortization and interest payments of agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) for agricultural lands distributed under the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP), meant to provide financial relief to over 650,000 ARBs whose income were adversely affected by the on-going health pandemic. President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. signed on 13 September 2022 an Executive Order to freeze CARP payments for a year, thereby allowing ARBs to save and utilize funds for farm development and improved productivity. “LANDBANK fully supports this landmark initiative to advance the interest and welfare of agrarian reform beneficiaries. Rest assured that we will continue to complement the National Government’s development agenda for ARBs and strategic land reforms,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo. LANDBANK serves as the collection agent of the National Government for land amortizations from ARBs, pursuant to its mandate as the financial intermediary of CARP. All collections are remitted by the Bank to the Bureau of the Treasury (BTr) as part of the revenue of the National Government. The Bank is also responsible for determining the land valuation and compensation for all lands covered under CARP. It likewise facilitates land transfer payment, and handles Agrarian Reform (AR) bond servicing transactions such as bond transfer, conversion, exchange and replacement, among others. Meanwhile, LANDBANK continues to offer financial assistance to ARBs and their organizations, or the Agrarian Reform Beneficiary Organizations (ARBOs), through the Credit Assistance Program for Program Beneficiaries Development (CAP-PBD) for crop production, agri-enterprise or livelihood, and other agri-related projects. The program is being implemented in partnership with the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) to provide capacity building and enterprise development support or interventions to ARBs and ARBOs, aimed at strengthening and improving their organizations’ operations and productivity. LANDBANK and DAR also offer the Expanded Assistance to Restore and Install Sustainable Enterprises for Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries and Small Farm Holders (E-ARISE-ARBs) which provides a contingent credit facility to ARBOs and its members who were adversely affected by natural calamities or disasters, pest and diseases, and other viral infections or outbreaks. LANDBANK’s combined releases under CAP-PBD and E-ARISE-ARBs have reached P720.2 million as of 30 June 2022, benefitting more than 200 ARBOs with more than 11,000 ARBs and small farm holder-members nationwide. In partnership with DAR, LANDBANK is also addressing the credit needs of individual ARBs who are not members of an ARBO through the Accessible Funds for Delivery to ARBs (AFFORD ARBs) Lending Program. The Bank has extended loan assistance amounting to P468.6 million to more than 1,700 borrowers under the Program as of end-June 2022.

READ MORELANDBANK assisted the operations of A.R. Santiago Fish Farm, owned by Arnel Santiago (left photo) in San Mateo, Isabela, which now produces 300,000 to 500,000 tilapia fingerlings monthly that are sold regularly to fish pond operators, government agencies, and other buyers in the Cagayan Valley and Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). SAN MATEO, Isabela – When Cagayan Valley, one of the country’s largest tilapia-producing regions, faced a region-wide shortage of tilapia fingerlings in 1993, business graduate Arnel Santiago decided to establish his own fish hatchery to help boost local production and earn additional income. With no prior experience in aquaculture but armed with determination to learn about fish farming, Arnel completed trainings on fish pond operations and established A.R. Santiago Fish Farm. He was able to sustain his operations until 2002, when running his business became a challenge due to lack of capital. It was then that Arnel availed of his first loan from the Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) to purchase feeds and modern equipment such as water pumps and a backhoe, as well as a 2.4-hectare agricultural land to expand his fish farm. Through LANDBANK’s continuing credit assistance over the years—which has since amounted to P6.4 million—Arnel’s fish production increased from an average of 100,000 tilapia fingerlings to 300,000 to 500,000 fingerlings per month. “Isang taos-pusong pasasalamat sa LANDBANK. Dahil sa tulong nila ay umasenso at napalawak ko ang aking negosyo. Nakatulong rin ako na mapunan ang kakulangan sa produksyon ng tilapia dito sa aming rehiyon,” said Arnel. A.R. Santiago Fish Farm now supplies fingerlings to various fish pond operators and buyers in Cagayan Valley and the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). The farm is also tapped by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resource (BFAR) Region II and other local government units to supply fingerlings for their distribution activities to fish farmers. With his increased income, Arnel was able to purchase a solar irrigation system to power his water pumps during daytime. This has since reduced monthly operational expenses by 30%. “Consistent with the country’s continuing recovery, LANDBANK remains committed to catering to the financial requirements of the fisheries sector. We are assisting fishers and other key players to boost their production and income,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo. To support the local fishing industry in Isabela, Arnel offers technical assistance to new fish breeders who want to venture into the tilapia breeding business. The A.R. Santiago Fish Farm is now accredited as a ‘Learning Site for Agriculture’ by BFAR, the Agricultural Training Institute (ATI), and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). Arnel has also reaped various awards for his accomplishments as a fish farmer from the Department of the Agriculture (DA) and the Local Government of San Mateo. “Gusto kong ibahagi ang aking expertise at technical knowledge sa bagong henerasyon, para masiguro ang tuloy-tuloy na paglago ng aquaculture industry sa ating bansa,” Arnel added. LANDBANK remains to be the biggest lender to the agriculture sector, with a total agri loan portfolio of P257.94 billion and having assisted more than 3.2 million small farmers and fishers nationwide as of 31 May 2022.
