To be able to industrialize, countries should be more than self- subsistent or gain a surplus and be able to do so efficiently.
Agricultural productivity and efficiency therefore become a prerequisite for industrialization. Thus, efficient use of land becomes very important

Vital Position of Agriculture in National Economy Agriculture forms the predominant
industry in the Philippines large portion of total working population
is employed in agriculture. has high export value and makes up an
essential part of a countries Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Agriculture can thus claim priority as the most important component of the economic structure.
![Page 17: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Obstacles to agricultural productivity Agricultural productivity does not
occur by chance, it has to be worked out.
It is clear that reforms are needed to remove barriers to increase agricultural productivity so that agriculture can contribute its maximum share to overall growth and economic development.
![Page 18: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Agrarian reform is an instrument for increasing agricultural productivity Agrarian reform seeks to create an
economic environment that will encourage farmers to produce and market more of what they produce, to the end that an improvement in the level of living of rural population can be achieved at the earliest possible time and thus help to hasten the pace of national development.

Corazon Aquino When she became president, President
Aquino considered agrarian and land reform as the center of her administration. However, she was criticized being the co-owner of Hacienda Luicita in Tarlac
![Page 24: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
On February 22, 1987, 3 weeks after the ratification of 1987 constitution, agrarian workers and farmers had a peaceful marched to Mendiola going to Malacanang and ended firing them by marine forces, now called as Mendiola Massacre, where 12 farmers were killed and 19 injured. Mrs.Aquino was not directly involved in the incident but because it was not resolved, her administration was criticized.
![Page 25: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
On July 22, 1987, President Aquino issued Presidential Proclamation 131 and Executive Order 229 calling for Agrarian Reform including sugar lands.
![Page 26: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
On 1988, the Congress of the Philippines passed a Republic Act 6657 known as Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law, which was backed up by Mrs.Aquino. The law is about the distribution of agricultural lands to tenants-farmers from landowners and also allowed to retain not more than5 hectares of land.
![Page 27: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Despite the implementation of the CARP law, Aquino was not spared from controversies because of Hacienda Luisita – a 6,453 hectare land at Tarlac when she with her siblings from her father Don Jose Cojuangco. It was said that Aquino issued Executive Order 229 to pressure her relatives to allow stock distribution but, Hacienda Luisita was recognized as corporation and in turn gave its shares of stocks to farmers. However, in 2006, the Department o Agrarian Reform revoked the stock distribution, and ordered instead the distribution of land property to the farmers/tenants.
![Page 28: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
It also states that the landowners were allowed to “voluntarily give proportion to their capital stock, equity or participation in favor of the workers or qualified beneficiaries; instead of turning over their lands to the government for distribution.
![Page 29: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Violence erupted over the Hacienda,7 people were killed in 2004 so the Department of Agrarian Reform intervened into the controversy.

“The lack of capital is one of the major obstacles to improving the lives of farmer-beneficiaries, most of them are forced to approach loan sharks for farm inputs.”- Coop-Natcco Partylist Rep. Cresente

Hacienda Luisita A landmark decision issued by the
Philippine Supreme Court on Tuesday reversed the Stock Distribution Plan enacted at Hacienda Luisita, Incorporated, but upheld the validity of the Stock Distribution Option as a method of agrarian reform.
The court mandated that potential beneficiaries of agrarian reform once again vote if they wished to receive land or stock options.
![Page 58: Agrarian and land reorms](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042614/554d994db4c9051b6e8b4600/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
The 6,000-hectare Hacienda Luisita sugar plantation is owned by the Cojuangco family, of which President Benigno Aquino is the leading scion. When his mother, Corazon Aquino, assumed the presidency in the aftermath of the Marcos dictatorship, she was immediately confronted with demands from working people for concessions, including for land for the country’s impoverished peasantry.
