Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR)

The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) is a government agency in the Philippines responsible for land redistribution and support for farmers. Its primary goal is to promote equitable land ownership by transferring private and public agricultural land to landless farmers and farm-workers. DAR provides assistance such as technical support, training, and infrastructure to help farmers improve productivity and achieve sustainable development. By doing so, it aims to reduce poverty, enhance rural livelihoods, and ensure fair land distribution as part of national development and social justice efforts.
