DAR observes health protocols, subdivides lot in Covid-19 critically-affected Samar area

DAR-Samar team surveys the 8.4-hectare farm, shared by four agrarian reform beneficiaries, to subdivide it and the previously issued collective CLOA into four individual titles.

MOTIONG, Samar – Despite the continuous rise of Novel Coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) cases in the province of Samar, the survey teams of the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) have remained steadfast in their commitment to pursue vigorously the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program.

Last week, Engr. Enan Chua and Ferwell Aquino of the DAR-Samar survey team proceeded here in complete adherence to the required health protocols to subdivide an 8.4-hectare landholding covered by a collective Certificate of Land Ownership Award (CLOA) for the issuance of individual titles to four agrarian reform beneficiaries.

They did their job, mindful of the risk that they are facing as the province has recorded 2,383 positive cases of Covid 19, the highest in Eastern Visayas. The Department of Health (DOH) said 2,240 of them had already recovered, leaving 143 active cases and 21 deaths.

Motiong municipal agrarian reform program officer-in-charge Constancio Mabag said the collective CLOA was issued in 1996.

Mabag disclosed that the area is composed of 84 hectares and situated in the upland barangay of Candumacol, about nine kilometers away from the town proper.
