Agrarian Reform Act (Philippines)

The Agrarian Reform Act of the Philippines is a law that promotes the redistribution of land from wealthy landowners to farmers and tenants, aiming to achieve social justice and sustainable development. It establishes programs to acquire, distribute, and provide support services for land reform beneficiaries, ensuring they gain legal ownership and access to resources for productive farming. The law also sets guidelines to prevent land grabbing and promotes equitable land use, ultimately empowering farmers, reducing inequality, and fostering rural development.
