LANDBANK assistance injects hope to Davao de Oro banana plantation

LANDBANK’s timely assistance helped Reicher Banana Farm, Inc. (RBFI) in Davao de Oro to register a 100% growth in production and fully recover from the dreaded Panama disease. PANTUKAN, Davao de Oro – When Reichard Dumaluan’s 74-hectare banana plantation was hit hard by the destructive Panama plant disease in 2013, his business was at serious risk of wilting away along with the infected trees in his farm.  The Panama disease infested Cavendish plantations throughout the province (formerly Compostela Valley) and neighboring towns in the region, only four years after Dumaluan established the plantation, Reicher Banana Farm, Inc. (RBFI), in 2009. Over time, the disease caught on, affecting the quality and quantity of RBFI’s produce. With plantation yield and income significantly reduced, RBFI sought financial assistance from the Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) to rehabilitate and sustain their operations.  RBFI availed of a P75-million loan from LANDBANK in 2018 to supplement working capital and purchase the necessary inputs and equipment for rehabilitation.    After two years of rehabilitation, RBFI fully recovered from the plant disease and is now harvesting around 10,000 boxes of produce a week—a 100% increase from the previous production of 5,000 boxes a week. “LANDBANK recognizes the importance of each subsector of agriculture to ensure food security. Through accessible credit assistance, we stand ready to support the diverse requirements of agri players to boost production and income,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecila C. Borromeo. RBFI also used a portion of the LANDBANK loan for land expansion and modernization, which includes the purchase of a digital device which can record data per banana bunch, such as its weight, age, and location in the plantation.  With the data, RBFI can digitally monitor the health of the crops and accurately distributes farm inputs such as fertilizers, thereby helping the company save on costs. The generated data also allows RBFI to forecast harvests within a given season. “I am grateful for LANDBANK’s support, especially at a time we needed it the most. As a client, we appreciate the customer service, as well as the financial and technical support they provide for our production,” Reichard Dumaluan said.  RBFI has since expanded its plantation to 130 hectares and generates employment for around 220 local residents. Their banana harvest is also being exported to different countries, including South Korea, China, and the Middle East, among others.  As of 30 June 2022, LANDBANK’s loan portfolio to support the country’s banana industry has reached P1.49 billion, in line with its intensified service to the agriculture sector. 

LANDBANK income surges 94% to P20.3-B in H1 2022

The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) recorded a net income growth of 93.5% to P20.3 billion in the first half of 2022 from P10.3 billion a year ago, alongside doubledigit increases in assets and deposits. LANDBANK’s substantial expansion in net income is attributed to its prudent management of the cost of funds as well as sustained interest income from loans and investments. “LANDBANK’s robust financial performance will continue to drive its intensified assistance to key industries, especially the agriculture sector, in support of the country’s continuing recovery. We will also build on this growth momentum to further our efforts to rebuild local communities, advance financial inclusion, and support the National Government’s development agenda,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo. LANDBANK’s total assets in the first half of the year grew by 11.8% to P2.8 trillion, further solidifying its ranking as the second-largest bank in the country. This was propelled by deposits amounting to P2.5 trillion, up 10.1% year-on-year. The government sector continues to account for the bulk of LANDBANK’s total deposits at 62% or P1.5 trillion, while the private sector comprised the remaining 38% share amounting to P930 billion. LANDBANK posted modest capital growth year-on-year at 1.9% to P206.5 billion, primarily due to the 93.5% surge in net income for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022. The Bank’s financial ratios remain at healthy levels, with return on equity at 15.43%, return on assets at 1.19%, and net interest margin at 2.92%. Through the years, LANDBANK has grown into one of the leading universal banks in the country, while remaining faithful to its social mandate to promote inclusive and sustainable development. On 8 August 2022, the state-run Bank will mark its 59th anniversary, representing almost six decades of service to the nation.

LANDBANK was instrumental in creating the one-time crediting system with the Air Force Accounting Office for PAF personnel’s salary and allowances; and the PAF Online Payment System which allows personnel to settle government-related accountabilities and dues through LANDBANK’s digital payment portal. “LANDBANK is one with the Philippine Air Force in its ongoing defense modernization efforts, as we continue to serve the country’s armed forces with convenient and accessible digital banking services,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo. LANDBANK South NCR Branches Group Head, Senior Vice President Ramon R.

LANDBANK is leveraging on the latest technology to support the digitalization of various government operations as part of its expanded mandate of serving the nation.

LANDBANK agri loans hit P257.7-B as of end-June

Celebrating 59 years of serving the nation As Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) celebrates its 59th anniversary on 8 August 2022, the state-run Bank remains committed to servicing the development requirements of small farmers, fishers, and other key players in the agri-business value chain, as loans to the agriculture sector reached P257.7 billion as of 30 June 2022.  The P257.7 billion total outstanding loans translate to a 15.5% increase from the same period a year ago, further solidifying LANDBANK’s position as the biggest lender to the agriculture sector in the country. “LANDBANK stands ready to extend accessible credit to all agri players to boost the country’s food production and supply. We will continue ramping up our lending activities in full support of the new administration’s agricultural modernization agenda,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo.  Of the P257.7 billion total outstanding loans, P37.5 billion benefited small farmers and fishers, including those which were channeled through cooperatives and farmers’ associations, rural financial institutions, and other conduits. A total of P163.1 billion supported small, medium, and large agribusiness enterprises, while the remaining P57 billion aided agri-aqua related projects of local government units (LGUs) and government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs). The loans were used to finance various economic activities, including P56.7 billion for livestock, crops and fisheries production, and P122.2 billion for agri-processing and trading of rice, corn, and sugarcane, among others.  A total of P78.8 billion also backed the construction and improvement of essential agriculture infrastructure such as public markets, farm-to-market roads, warehouses, cold storages, irrigation systems, and slaughterhouses. In the first six months of 2022, LANDBANK also assisted in the construction and improvement of 138 kilometers of farm-to-market roads—which is one of the priorities in President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr.’s development plan for the agriculture sector.  Agri-Mechanization Financing Program In support of the President’s long-term goal to modernize agricultural production, LANDBANK has been offering the Agri-Mechanization Financing Program designed to promote mechanization of production and post-production processes, from planting to harvesting and processing, thereby increasing efficiency, reducing post-harvest losses and lowering production costs. The LANDBANK Agri-Mechanization Financing Program has supported 53 micro and small enterprises and cooperatives with cumulative loan releases totaling P681.5 million as of end-June 2022.  More Small Farmers and Fishers Assisted By adopting a more focused and direct lending approach, LANDBANK has cumulatively assisted more than 3.3 million farmers and fishers nationwide, of which 566,462 or 17% came from the 20 poorest provinces in the country. The top provinces with the highest number of beneficiaries include Nueva Ecija, Maguindanao, Bohol, Pangasinan, Cotabato, Isabela, Cagayan, Leyte, Ilocos Sur, and South Cotabato. LANDBANK’s close collaboration with the Department of Agriculture (DA) and the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) has also allowed it to reach and serve more farmers and fishers.  As of 30 June 2022, LANDBANK has extended a total of P13.3 billion to 247,591 borrowers under the programs it is administering for DA, and another P719.4 million to more than 200 agrarian reform beneficiary (ARB) organizations benefiting over 11,000 ARBs and small farm holders under DAR’s programs.  Through the years, LANDBANK has grown into one of the leading universal banks in the country, while remaining faithful to its social mandate to promote inclusive and sustainable development, representing almost six decades of service to the nation.
