Executive Summary

Introduction

The settlement was named Sultan Kudarat Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1 based on Presidential Proclamation No. 189 issued on June 29, 1950. Various changes happened in the legal framework of the settlement affecting its extent of coverage. The settlement now covers 16 barangays of Columbio municipality with a total land area of 46,000 hectares. The MinSAAD Project covers Sultan Kudarat Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1, hence, this Settlement Development Plan (SDP) is prepared based on the goals, objectives and components of the Project. This SDP covers only development components which are eligible for MinSAAD financing in compliance with MinSAAD general rule that project sub-projects go through approval processes.

Profile of plan area and beneficiaries

Total population in the settlement’s 16 barangays is 21,698 where 11,257 (52%) are males and 10,441 (48%) are females. Maguindanaoans dominated the population with 6,572 or 30%, B’laans are 4,931 or 23%, followed by Hiligaynons(4,364),Ilocanos(4,181), and other tribes. The average landholding per household is estimated at 1.5 hectare. And, on poverty incidence, it is recorded at 61% with 1,971 households enrolled in the Conditional Cash Transfer program of the government.

Development objectives and strategic interventions

Development objectives.The plan aims to address poverty and food security. It will be attained through (a) increasing household income of the farmers and their organizations; and (b) having the beneficiaries engaged in more profitable income generating activities. Attaining those objectives requires institutional capacity, hence, the following are to be conducted: a. Capacity building of organizations/institutions tasked with service delivery; b. Increasing competitiveness and observing sustainable agriculture; c. Improving water supply facilities in underserved areas; and d. Enhance environmental conditions in the project areas.

Approach and strategies.Sustainable development approach shall be undertaken. Capacity building on non-farm income generating activities for alternative livelihood will be provided to the ARBs in coordination with TESDA or with other government agencies. Skills enhancement on the new production system in agriculture, credit, marketing extension coordinated with DA, the delivery of basic social services coordinated with DSWD, DOH, other concerned agencies, information campaign on reforestation and forestry regulation for the protection and conservation of watershed areas coordinated with DENR will also be provided. In addition, mobilization of the community, LGU of Columbio, MinSAAD and other available resources through coordinated, unified and partnership planning in the development of project will be adopted.

Proposed development interventions

Below are proposed interventions with a total cost of PhP372,666,133.33 across components, spread over five years.

Agriculture,Agro-Industry and Agroforestry Development (AAAD). The proposed interventions in this component are based on Yen Loan Technical Assistance (YLTA) study and consultations. Table 3 below presents the details of AAAD interventions.

A totalof Php14,666,666.67worth of water supply facilities to be constructed which shall serve 2,200beneficiaries.

Institutional development

Initiatives under this component are in support to AAAD and infrastructure development. The component undertakes activities mainly aimed at strengthening the capacity of community organizations and partner institutions, such as the LGUs. For the community organizations or ARBOs, in particular, the component seeks to make them agri- enterprising cooperatives or associations, operating even after project assistance. For this component, a budget of Php8 million is proposed.

Implementation arrangement

Following the design of the MinSAAD implementation arrangement, the settlement will organize, per municipality, a Settlement Management Team (SMT) which is directly under the supervision of the Provincial Project Management Office (PPMO) and headed by the Provincial Agrarian Reform Officer (PARO) acting as the MinSAAD Provincial Project Manager. The SMT, whose members come from LGU offices, relevant national agencies, barangay officials, and community groups, is headed by the Municipal Agrarian Reform Officer (MARO).

Risks

The risks associated with the plan relate to natural disasters, financial and institutional capacity of the LGUs, internal conflicts and capacity of the beneficiaries. Specific strategies are planned out to address or mitigate them.

I. INTRODUCTION The Sultan Kudarat Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1 was proclaimed on June 29, 1950 under Presidential Proclamation No. 189 with land area of 52,000 hectares for the production of rice, corn and other agricultural production purposes. The proclamation originally covered the sitios of Damalusay, Libertad, Lomoyon, Alip (), Maligaya, Mayo, Natividad, Columbio, , Sucob, Telafas, Datalblao, Tukay Baluen and Upper Bunawan, all falling under the Municipality of , . Columbio became a regular barangay under the Municipality of Buluan, Province of Cotabato also in 1953. Appendix I showed the map of SK Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1 with its agricultural land area of 46,000 hectares more or less now under the administration and disposition of the Department of Agrarian Reform Sultan Kudarat Province. The proclamation envisioned to provide land settlement program, and public land distribution for a truly social and viable economic structure settlement area.

The settlement abounds with good vegetation due to the presence of rivers like Alip, Dalol and Bunawan Rivers. Creeks, streams and springs further ensure sufficient supply of water for both household and agricultural purposes.

In late 1957, the National Resettlement and Rehabilitation Administration (NARRA) conducted a survey in the farm and homelots in the settlement and managed the land distribution and introduced special projects on infrastructure, such as roads, bridges, school buildings and irrigation systems.

The settlement has undergone various changes in its legal framework. The Municipality of Columbio (carved from Buluan municipality) was created on August 6, 1961 by virtue of Executive Order Number 39 composed of twenty-seven (27) barangays namely, Alip, now the new municipality of Datu Paglas, Bantangan, Lower Bunawan, Upper Bunawan, Damalusay, Damawato, Datalblao, Eday, Elbebe, Kalomanga, Katil, Libertad, Lomoyon, Makat, Sumali Pas, Malala, Maligaya, Manindolo, Mayo, Natividad, , Polomolok, Puya, Sepaka, Sinapulan, Sucob, Telafas and Tukay Baloen.

The creation of the new Municipality of Datu Paglas in 1973 took nine (9) constituent barangays of Columbio, namely: Alip, Lower Bunawan, Damalusay, Damawato, Katil, Malala, Manindolo, Puya and Sepaka. Columbio was left with only eighteen (18) barangays. Colonsabak and Lasak were reported part of Columbio in 1980.

By virtue of Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) executed by and between the local officials of the two municipalities of Columbio and Datu Paglas; Barangays Damalusay and Lower Bunawan were formally ceded to the Municipality of Datu Paglas in 1975.

The total population in the settlement is 21,698 with 9,349 households. The household income is P113,640.90 or P9,470.05 monthly which is below poverty line. Common diseases in the area are influenza and diarrhea. Household size is 5 persons per family.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 1

B’laans lived as the inhabitants during the proclamation of the settlement. Muslims came to settle in the place and later the Christians from Luzon and Visayas and from nearby municipalities of the then empire Province of Cotabato and parts of Davao Province. These people are still in the settlement and entitled to the benefits of the reservation because they are in their lands since its proclamation. The Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) implementation covered the settlement areas since 1993 and DAR has issued Certificate of Landownership Awards (CLOA) to the 14,276 ARBs to an area of 46,000 hectares.

Purpose of the SDP The Settlement Development Plan covers only the settlement areas within the municipality of Columbio covering 16 barangays with a total agricultural land area of 46,000 hectares with 14,276 ARBs.

The MinSAAD Project covers Sultan Kudarat Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1 as its project area. The SDP prepared aligns its goals, objectives and components with MinSAAD. This SDP covers priorities of the settlement in compliance with MinSAAD general rule that project sub-projects go through approval processes. MinSAAD project components include agriculture, agribusiness and agro-forestry, infrastructure development, and institutional development.

Scope and Limitations of the Plan and Future Initiatives

The plan focuses on the development interventions in Sultan kudarat Resettlement Project No.1-Phase 1 relevant to MinSAAD financing schemes. The plan and sub- projects go through the sub-projects approval processes provided under the general rules of MinSAAD implementation arrangements. The beneficiaries participate in the approval processes of the projects in agriculture, agribusiness, agro-forestry and other development investments identified. Feasibility studies are formulated for approved sub-projects in SK Resettlement Project No. 1-Phase 1 to fast track its implementation. Annex B shows the socio-economic profile of the settlement.

II. PLAN AREA AND BENEFICIARIES

The Planned Area The settlement covers sixteen (16) barangays namely, Bantangan, Datalbalo, Eday, Elbebe, Lasak, Libertad, Lomoyon, Makat, Maligaya, Mayo, Natividad, Poblacion, Polomolok, Sinapulan, Sucob and Telafas. It is geographically located in the easternmost of the province of Sultan Kudarat. It is bounded on the North by the Municipality of , North Cotabato; on the East, by the Municipalities of Matan-o and Magsaysay, Davao del Sur; on the West by the Alip and Quezon Ranges bordering the Municipalities of Buluan and Datu Paglas, Maguindanao and on the South by the Municipality of . It is located at the geographical coordinates of 6o29’56” to 6o48’12” east longitude and 124o52’05” to 125o11’54” north latitude.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 2

It is 53 kilometers from , the capital town of the province of Sultan Kudarat passing City and Datu Paglas. It is 42 kilometers away from Tacurong City, the nearest trade and commercial center in the Province of Sultan Kudarat. It is 73 kilometers to City – the nearest trade and commercial center in the neighboring Province of South Cotabato. It is 132 kilometers from City-the center of Trade and Industry in the SOCSARGEN passing Isulan, Tacurong City, Tantangan, Koronadal City, Tupi and Polomolok.

The existing means of transportation to reach the settlement are jeepneys, motorcycles or the “habal-habal” and hauling trucks.

The physiographic characteristics of the settlement vary from flat, scattered hills and mountainous terrain (socio profile attached as Annex B). It is estimated that the level area of (0-3 %) slope is 16,440.85 hectares and (3-8) % slope is 3,619.89 hectares which is used for intensive agricultural production. The settlement area has a soil type of san Manuel silty clay loam and Tupi fine sandy loam which is suited to the production of various agricultural crops.

The settlement area falls under the 4th climatic type that rainfall is more or less evenly distributed throughout the year. This rainfall pattern contributes to the high production levels in agriculture of the region.

The settlement has 46,000 hectares agricultural land. Total area planted to agricultural crops is 10,255.00 hectares. Agriculture remains the main industry of the settlement. Crops produced are banana, mango, corn, rice, coconut, rubber, coffee, and palm oil. Lowland and upland rice is the major crop produced with 3,762.25 hectares. Corn is planted to 4,442.00 hectares, Coconut has 1,120 hectares, palm oil has 730.00 hectares, banana has 365.00 hectares, rubber has 7.00 hectares, and coffee has 44.00 hectares (list of existing crops attached as Annex C). The remaining area has a potential area for agro forestry and agricultural land which is a promising agro forestry production promoted aggressively by the local government (list of proposed agri expansion attached as Annex D). The sloping area is suitable for the palm oil production and the mountainous portion is conserved for environmental and income generation programs off the government.

Rice production is one of the main sources of income of the households. The average yield per hectare of irrigated rice land is 3,500 kg per season which is below the standard of 4MT/ha/cropping. Rice is sold at the nearest market, but some are retained for consumption. Most farmers generally plant low yielding rice seeds available in the locality sold at P1,200.00 at 40 kilos per cavan. Hybrid seeds are very costly and not affordable to the farmers. As the yields are low, household incomes are also low. Rice is sold either fresh or dry to the private traders in the locality. These are usually the “financers” of the farm inputs with usurious interests.

Corn yield is 6.0MT shelled corn per hectare. Corn is currently sold in the market at P10.00/kilo.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 3

The high cost of trucking services are due to difficult, sometimes not passable, rough and dilapidated roads. The price of rice is either P1.00 or 2.00 less than the prevailing price in Tacurong City. More often famers’ produce are just enough or even less to pay the debts with these private traders. The farmers repeat the cycle for the next cropping season for survival.

Power supply is installed at the poblacion and in some barangays. Far-flung barangays without electricity avail of the “O Ilaw” and solar projects packages.

Mostly of the residents are dependent on shallow wells for drinking water, rivers and creeks for household use.

Opportunities

The SKRA phase 1 has a wide tract of agricultural lands suitable for commercial and high value crops and is bestowed with natural resources that are suitable for forest and tourist development. The plain fertile soil with and without irrigation are best for rice production. The undulating to sloping to hilly areas are best suited for agro-forestry where the potential area for agro-forestry accounts for 24,005.10 hectares. These are suited to palm oil, rubber and coffee production. Mountainous areas are reserved for water conservation.

One of the opportunities in the settlement is the presence of investors interested to invest in agriculture base industries in settlement area. The major crops grown have not reached their potential yields which can be addressed through access to credit, provision of technical assistance and infusion of investment for basic rural infrastructure to which MINSAAD could provide.

The settlement is a typhoon free area. It has a regular dry and wet season. Dry season starts from December to May and rainy season starts from June to November with some rain showers. It has an elevation area of 300 to 400 meters above sea level suitable for tropical agricultural products.

The settlement area endowed with rich water resources. Alip, Dalol and Bunawan Rivers, creeks, springs and waterfalls abound in the area simply because watershed and headwater areas are located in the area. If fully utilized, it will give the settlement area sufficient water both for household and farming consumption.

There are also mineral deposits like gold and copper in the settlement. FTAA estimated that gold has an estimated ore deposit of 9.494242556 ounces and copper is 7.543370798 million tons. The biggest company is the SMI which established an office in the adjacent municipality of , South Cotabato.

Some roads were constructed and repaired under the Mindanao Rural Development Program (MRDP) funded by the World Bank with counterpart from the Local Government Unit. The bridge connecting the settlement to the nearest market. Additional farm-to-market roads proposed for construction and rehabilitation will solve the farmers’ problems on the high cost of hauling and transportation cost from the farms to the nearest local market.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 4

Other opportunity is the location of the settlement which is near the centers of trade and commerce of the neighboring province. One of the neighboring centers is Tacurong City the trade center of Sultan Kudarat and SOCSARGEN the center Trade and Industry of South Cotabato.

The high demand for oil in the local and international markets pave the way for farmers to shift from the traditional corn or root crops production to the oil palm production. This will generate employment and other economic activities in the settlement. The Local Government Unit of Columbio supports the farmers in this flagship project for agro-forestry and environmental protection program. The high cost of palm oil seedlings hinders the farmers to expand the plantation. Potential area for production is 7,816 hectares.

Another opportunity for the settlement is the convergence area of DAR-DA-DENR and DILG. The LGU’s and other line agencies including provincial government are the active entities giving service in the settlement. Their service is ranging from the basic social services to some support infrastructure facilities. The settlement is one of the priority areas in PAMANA-ARA and ARCESS.

Constraints The low farm productivity despite fertile lands and moderate climate is a problem of farmers. Low income is due to low production, high cost of farm inputs, high labor cost, high transportation cost, traditional farming, unemployment, environmental degradation, and watershed devastation in the critical areas.

Kaingin (slash and burn cultivation or swidden agriculture) is a traditional farming system that denudes the watershed reservations and degradation of forest reserves. Some agricultural lands in the settlement are under use and idle. In addition, farmers used glyphosate to control weeds on corn which also made the soil porous and prone to soil erosion and degradation. It is estimated area that about 25,095.2 hectare is prone to soil erosion and landslide. Charcoal making devastates and depletes the forest in the watersheds. Farmers practiced mono-cropping because of lack of faming technology.

Insufficient availability of technical service to agriculture production is one reason of low production in the settlement area. Some farmers organizations lack raining and they have no linkage with academic institution engaged on agricultural production.

There are existing roads in the settlement but they do not reach the production areas and they need rehabilitation. Farmers are not enthusiastic to produce more because of the high cost of hauling and handling expenses. Draft animals like carabaos and horses haul the product at P15.00/sack or more depending on the distance of the landholding to the road. The road conditions limit the visits of basic social services providers.

There are irrigation systems existing in the settlement that are the main sources of irrigation water of rice farmers. However, facilities in irrigation are inefficient and need rehabilitation to serve the irrigable areas and to maximize the use of water.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 5

Some of the residents in the settlement have poor access to potable water system. Other residents fetch water from pitcher pumps which are limited also. Other household are compelled to use unsafe water dug wells along the river and creek banks.

Another constraint in the settlement is inadequate post-harvest facilities. The limited number of farm equipments in the settlement cause delay in land preparation. It is noticed that land preparation is very slow, laborious and costly. On the other hand, some farmers encounter difficulties in their farming operation and hire machineries in other neighboring barangays to cope with the volume of work.

Another constraint is majority on People Organizations and ARB organizations are low in organizational maturity level. They are low in maturity level in the aspect of resource management, social enterprise operation and alliance building. In addition, there is no consolidation of agricultural products owned by ARBs and non-ARBs in the settlement.

One of the constraints encountered by the farmers is limited credit facilities and high interest imposed by financiers (usually private traders); hence, their dependence on the financiers. Some farmers are unable to borrow from LBP or other government financial institution because they have no registered organization.

Other constraint is insufficient funds of the LGU to focus on the agro-forestry development project. It is important to give attention on agro-forestry development to prevent the critical situation of the area as headwater and watershed of the various rivers and creeks as well as springs that supply potable and farming water requirements.

The Beneficiaries

The settlement has 16 barangays with a total population of 21,698. There are 11,257 males or 52% and females are 10,441 or 48%. There are 10,938 or 50% both male and female population ranges from ages 15 to 64 years.

The total ARBs in Settlement I is 14, 276 which is 65.8% of the total population while the non ARBs are 34.2%. The female ARBs are 3, 404 which is 23.85% of the total ARB population while the male ARBs are10, 872. The status of the ARBs in the settlement is 11, 420.8 ARB or 80% of the total population of the ARB are still actual tillers of their land while the non-actual tiller is 2, 855.2 or 20%.

Maguindanaons dominate the population with 6.572 or 30%. B’laans are 4,931 or 23%, Hiligaynons are 4,364 or 20%, Ilocanos are 4,181 or 19%, and other tribes is 18%. The annual population growth rate is 2.0%.

The average household income is P113,640.90 or 9,470.08 per month. Poverty incidence is recorded at 61% with 1,971 households enrolled at the Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) program of the government known to many as the 4Ps.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 6

The average landholding per household is estimated at 1.5 hectare. Perhaps, some of the residents must have sold portion of lands originally granted to them by DAR through the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program. Other issued patents belong to non-IPs.

There is no existing government hospital in the settlement. Health services are provided by one Rural Health Unit in the Poblacion. There are 13 BHS, 18 Rural Health Midwives, one Municipal Health Officer, one Municipal Attending Physician, one casual Dentist, three Public Health Nurses, one Medical Technologist, 95 Barangay Health Workers, and six Botica ng Barangay. Minor cases are treated in the rural health unit while major cases are brought to Tacurong City, Koronadal City, General Santos and the Sultan Kudarat Provincial Hospital in Isulan. High maternal mortality rate of .5% occurred in the settlement.. Inadequate health services are due to poor road network, lack of health facilities, lack of transport facilities, lack of medicines, and lack of health personnel, no laboratory facilities, and delayed communications.

Beneficiaries had undergone various leadership, organization and management and other capacity and capability trainings to about 2,575 recipients or 22%. These are mostly officers of different organizations.

III. DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIC INTERVENTIONS The residents in the settlement desire a progressive community with peace, love, healthy environment and united with God.

Development Objectives

Generally, the plan aims to address poverty and food security. It also aims to increase household income of the farmers and their organizations; engage in a more profitable income generating activities through the provision of rural infrastructure, agricultural development and capacity building in the target 52,000 hectares settlement area.

Specifically, the plan aims to increase agricultural productivity, product value and income of 14,276 ARBs by 10% at the end of five years. The plan also provides organizational capacity building for the service delivery institution, increase competitiveness and sustainable agriculture, improve water supply facilities in underserved areas, and enhance environmental conditions in the project areas.

Approaches and Strategies This plan was formulated in consultation with the the local officials and other stakeholders in the settlement. Sustainability approach was adopted with interviews on the ARBs. Capacity building on non-farm income generating activities for alternative livelihood will be provided to the ARBs in coordination with TESDA or with other government agencies. Skills enhancement on the new production system in agriculture, credit, marketing, extension coordinated with DA, the delivery of basic social services coordinated with DSWD, DOH, other concerned agencies, information campaign on reforestation and forestry regulation for the protection and conservation of watershed areas coordinated with DENR will also be provided.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 7

Mobilization of the community, LGU of Columbio, MinSAAD and other available resources through coordinated, unified and partnership planning in the development of project will be adopted.

Proposed Development Intervention/Components The project components are designed within MinSAAD logical framework. Further, interventions and modifications not within the working scope of MinSAAD may be introduced to enhance development processes. This approach is deemed necessary to improve the sustainability of investments under MinSAAD which is the major source of the development financing of these settlement projects.

Component I. Agri-Development, Agri-Industries and Agro-Forestry Development Corn planted is planted in mono-crop farming system in undulating, hilly and sloppy portions of the settlement and denudes areas that are now landslides and soil erosion prone. There had been attempts by DAR and DA to introduce upland farming technology and the Sloping Agricultural Land Technology (SALT) to address landslide and soil erosion problems in the settlement, but many have not adopted the technology. The Support to Agrarian Reform Communities in Central Mindanao (STARCCM) introduced agro-forestry and distributed fruit trees planting materials for free, yet not all of the farmers availed of the program which means there are still substantial areas with potential for agro-forestry. Similarly, rice is produced by the famers with 4.0MT/cropping season with two to three crops in a year.

With projects to be implemented in the settlement, it is imperative that a close monitoring by the Settlement Management Team is undertaken

1. Agricultural, Agri-business and Agroforestry The sub-components interventions in the settlement covers enhancement of existing production system, promotion of intercropping and diversified farming, use of SALT technology in the hilly portions, provide financial assistance on the expansion of palm oil and rubber crop production; andprovide farmers with sustainable agricultural development mechanisms.

a. Agriculture Enhancement of irrigated rice production system to 3,561.75 hectares to ensure food security and income shall be introducedto 4,575 ARBs. Extension services of field technicians shall be enhanced and focused on organic rice rice production. Seed production of high yielding rice varieties; and improved cultural and farming practices shall be promoted. And the project will assist ARBOs in accessing low lending interests loans by LBP and other credit facilities. Enhancement of corn production and productivity in 4,442.0000 hectares shall involve the introduction of high yield corn varieties and improved cultural practices including IPM.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 8

b. Agri-Industry The development of handicrafts among the indigenous people and other ARBs in the settlement could provide source of additional income for households. MinSAAD and DAR in coordination with LGU shall provide technical support and assist in financing to entrepreneurial beneficiaries. Trainings for materials use will be pursued by the project team. Kalakat Weaving will be introduced with materials taken from the matured palm oil tree fronds as income generating activity. The produced kalakat can be used locally or can be sold in Region XII or in other parts of the .

Production and marketing of banana chips will be introduced among women and men as Gender and Development project in the settlement. There are six (6) units chipping machines proposed for this purpose.

c. Agro-Forestry and Environmental Development There are a few farmers engaged in oil palm production. Oil palm production as a commercial agriculture is suitable in the area. It is one of the biggest opportunities to fill the demand of the local and international markets. According to studies in Malaysia, Palm oil can be used as diesel oil substitute. Palm oil is also used for cooking oil for consumption.

It is expected that oil palm production will be expanded in the settlement given the interest of the farmers. Investment opportunities for palm oil industry are oil palm plantations, nurseries, trucking, buying stations, mills, processing plants for beauty and other soaps and personal care products. The settlement has a total potential area of 12,816 hectares for oil palm and rubber production.

Rubber is one of the most profitable agro-industrial products in the country specifically in Mindanao. Columbio has 5,000 hectares potential area for rubber production. Rubber can produce 300 kg per month with monthly income ranging from P19,809.00 to P39,544.00/hectare from cup lumps from the 7th year to 12th year. Rubber as reforestation crop can help control the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to combat the “greenhouse effect.

c.1. Barangay Forest Protection Management Project

The municipality of Columbio where the settlement is located has either a closed canopy or open canopy forest. The portions of the forest areas are nearly barren or barren, and some portions are covered with wooded grassland or grassland. Reforestation of this vast area will require a huge amount of resources. Requirement of reforestation can be minimized, should LGU employs a strategy of assisted natural regeneration (ANR). This is a principle that denuded forest areas when left for a long period of time will regenerate itself. Leaving these areas alone however may not result to the appearance of the desirable species of trees. Accordingly, tree species that are more economically desirable should be planted among those that grow naturally. ANR areas should be guarded against fires and should not be accessible to everyone.

The barangays should be given significant role in implementing ANR strategy. Trees from the ANR areas will not be used for firewood and it is recommended that each barangay shall be given an area where firewood e.g. ipil-ipil could be grown.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 9

The LGU shall delineate the Production Forest area and place under a tenurial system. This tenurial system could be CBFM, ISF, private management agreement or co- management agreement with private corporations with the primary objective of placing the Production Forest area under tenure or tenures to remove the present open access category. Operators of each tenure system shall present to the LGU its utilization plan of the Production Forest area under its management and shall be approved by the LGU in coordination with the DENR.

c.2. Agro-forestry/Agro-reforestation Some forest areas in the settlement are denuded subject to reforestation program to preserve nature and environment. The reforestations of forest areas cover all barangays of the settlement. A wildlife sanctuary must be protected by the LGU to serve as attraction and to propagate wildlife useful to the environment.

The MinSAAD in coordination with the LGU shall provide assistance to tenants of the Production Forest area by making available seedlings of fruit trees, and seedlings of trees for timber. In addition, training programs on forest management shall be provided in coordination with the DENR. The LGU shall also network with financial institutions to provide loans to tenants of Production Forest, if necessary.

An initial area of 2,000 ha for production of oil palm and 5,000 hectares for rubber are means to reforest denuded hilly and sloping areas that give income to the ARBs. Palm oil and rubber helps make the settlement have a friendly and healthy environment.

2. Infrastructure Development a. Post-Harvest Facilities Columbio being the centerl of the settlement is adjacent to major crop production areas of Central Mindanao Region. Municipalities around the settlement produce the same crops and even in larger volume. The high demand for organic and chemical free rice and agricultural products opens income opportunities for farmers. The production of organic and chemical free agricultural products should extend to vegetables and fruit production.

The LGU has to produce a certified seed farm with the assistance of PhilRice and the Department of Agriculture. The MinSAAD should be encouraged to extend assistance to modern post harvest facilities. The provision of dryer is appropriate to cater to drying needs of almost all ARBs in the 16 barangays. b. Farm to Market Roads

Economic development and the provision of services in the settlement are hampered by the absence of adequate transportation facilities. Transporting the produce from the landholding to the nearest market center is very costly and makes the produce not competitive with those of municipalities with better access to good roads and transport system. The bad roads in the settlement increased post harvest losses through spoilage and lack of capacity to transport large volume of agricultural

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 10 produce to the market. The lack of transport facilities also reduces the capacity of the government to provide social services to communities and lessen their capacity to provide good governance. There are 74.5 kilometers proposed road for construction costing P243, 500,000. c. Construction of Irrigation System The settlement has an estimated 3,561.75 hectares irrigated areas. There are four communal Irrigation Systems for rehabilitation in Almcia, Poblacion, Telafas, Libertad and Maligaya benefitting 1,000 ARBs.

The current yield of 4.0 metric tons per hectare for two cropping seasons per year will give a potential annual palay production capacity of 76,896 metric tons per year or 49,982.40 metric tons of milled rice per year at 65% milling recovery. With an annual consumption of rice estimated at 2,616 metric tons in 2008 and 2,933 metric tons in 2018, the settlement will register a sizeable rice surplus when these four (4) CIS are rehabilitated.

Component II. Rural Water Supply a. Improvement of Potable Water System The presence of two big water bodies such as Alip and Dalul Rivers and different creeks such as Makat, Macadiz, Lumaga, Maligaya, Mauno, Bila, and Malpikat creeks serve as the source of water supply for household and agricultural uses of the population. About 44 percent of the households in the area depend largely on rivers, creeks, and 14 percent on open wells and one (1) percent on the rain water.

Spring and ground water sources are abundant in the municipality. Spring development in identified barangays should be undertaken as source of potable water supply. Rehabilitation of PWS at Polomolok is also highly recommended.

A safe and potable water supply from Sinapulan-Maligaya-Poblacion benefiting 2,200 ARBs should also be considered as top priority project to prevent waterborne diseases. The point source of the water source is from barangay Sinapulan with a distance of 4 kilometer from the HHs users and 3.5 and 7 kilometers from Maligaya and Poblacion, respectively. The total household to benefit from the proposed PWS is 1,329 HH. There are some cases of waterborne diseases recorded in the barangays (data on the water source of the proposed PWS site as Annex F). The MinSAAD and LGU shall allocate funds for the construction of community water system. The LGU shall organize water system association to operate, maintain and sustain the project; and establish quality monitoring system to ensure safe drinking water. b. River Bank Stabilization Project The LGU of Columbio will provide structures to control overflow of the river as flood control measure. The rivers of the settlement show potential for dam construction. The same dam may be utilized to control floods that affect a number of barangays of the municipality.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 11

The Municipality of Columbio has two major watersheds. These are the Alip-Dalul Watershed that straddles all the barangays of Columbio except Elbebe and Polomolok, and the Mal-Bolol-Lumot Watershed which covers part of Barangays Datalblao, Elbebe, Polomolok, Sinapulan and Sucob. The minor watersheds of the municipality could be delineated into eight (8), with Lomoyon and seven (7) other unnamed watersheds within the settlement area.

Component III. Institutional Development

Training programs and appropriate post harvest facilities for the production of rice, corn. vegetables, banana, rubber, and oil palm will be provided in coordination with relevant government agencies and the private sector.

There are about 8,955 or 78% ARBs that need to be capacitated in leadership, management and agricultural production.

Sultan Kudarat State University’s outreach program is the partner institution during the implementation of the project.

At present there are five (5) people’s organizations assisted by DAR which some organization having a level five of organizational maturity and others with low level of maturity (list of Existing ARB Organization attached as Annex E). These organizations are within the barangays covered by the settlement. Majority of the members are active and the organizations mostly have an economic activities on irrigation services, trading and post-harvest processing.

Cooperative Development Strengthening The absence of government’s price control gives opportunities for private traders to control prices of farm products in the local market.

Strengthening the farmers’ groupings (associations or cooperatives) will transform these organizations into operational and functional credit conduits and marketing arms of farmer-ARBs. MinSAAD should provide capability development activities to ensure proper operation, maintenance and sustainability through the assistance of SMT and the CO. a. Organization of New POs Bantangan and Datalblao have two (2) existing organizations that need re- organization and strengthening. There are fourteen (14) barangays that need to organize new POs and if ever there are existing organizations capacity building trainings will be provided. b. Registration/Accreditation with Concerned Agencies The CO assigned in the area will assist the two (2) existing organizations either in the processing of the renewal of permits/registration or the financial statements when necessary. The fourteen (14) barangays with new organizations need the assistance of the CO in the preparation of the necessary documents for registration and accreditation with the concerned government entities.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 12

c. Capacity Building of POs through Laderized Training The 14 baragays need social preparation, organizational building, enterprise development and alliance building and other ladderizsed leadership and management trainings.

D. Land Tenure Security The settlement has a 100% accomplishment and is now LTI free. The survey and titling in the settlement are done.

IV. IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS The settlement will organize a Settlement Management Team (SMT) following the designs of the MinSAAD. The SMT will be directly under the supervision of the Provincial Project Management Office (PPMO) headed by the Provincial Agrarian Reform Officer who acts as the Provincial Project Manager. The MARO will be the team leader of the Settlement Management Team. The Settlement Management Team will compose the Municipal Mayor (or his authorized representative), the CENRO, the Rural Health Officer, Municipal Engineer, Municipal Agriculturist, and the Development Facilitators assigned in the settlement area. The Institutional Development Officer (of the NIA) and the Project In-Charge will also compose the SMT. (list of SMT as Annex G).

The project is largely municipal based and the Municipal Mayor is automatically the Co-Coordinator; Development Workers assigned in the barangay will be the Coordinator at the barangay level. The duties and functions of the SMT will those that are stated in MinSAAD project document.

The implementation of the project activities shall adhere to the MinSAAD implementation Guidelines.

V. MONITORING AND EVALUATION The MinSAAD Project will create a Monitoring and Evaluation System to link all settlements operations to measure performance level on the progress of the project. The monitoring and evaluation of this plan will be part of the overall MinSAAD M & E system. The MinSAAD M & E provides information at the settlement level for settlement managers to assess the situation for the field operations to address immediately. The settlement plan will be aligned to the MinSAAD evaluation system based on the approved SDP of each settlement.

VI. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL CONSIDERATION The plan adheres to the Social Development Framework of the country as exemplified in the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) as well as the environmental laws of the Philippines and as required by the Government of Japan. The plan will mainly focus on the sustainable agribusiness development as a green category due to social and environment concerns.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 13

IPRA as a social concern will be followed in settlements which are declared as ancestral domains. The regulations on the Philippine Social Development Framework shall be observed including but not exclusively to displacement, relocation, rights of way and other concerns.

Eco-System Development Considering that the settlement has forest zones which have been denuded due to illegal logging, kaingin and other purposes, a plan is conceived to protect the environment with the projects proposed as intervention of line agencies of government like agro-forestry, reforestation and river bank protection will be implemented as projects.

Enhance Convergence Initiative Sustainable rural development and poverty reduction are the long term goals of the rural development sector. The agriculture, agrarian reform and natural resources are subsectors that are expected to substantially contribute to rural development. The Department of Agriculture, Department of Agrarian Reform, Department of Natural Resources are jointly responsible to ensure that the outcomes are attained through Joint DA-DAR-DENR Memorandum Circular 01, Series of 1999 to develop and operationalize common framework for sustainable development that will facilitate the convergence of the resources of the three agencies to maximize the impact on countryside development.

The convergence strategies shall adopt the watershed and ecosystem management approach in the holistic, collaborative, multiple use and sustainable management resources within watershed. Convergence is a response to the fragmented delivery of agriculture and rural development services towards improved governance and maximize use of resources. This will be done through 1) enhancing institutional efficiencies; b) expanding opportunities for agro-enterprise and agribusiness development and c) achieving spatial integration.

VII. ESTIMATED COSTS AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS The total cost of the plan is estimated at PhP339, 327,000 for five years. The budget for agriculture, agri-industry, agro-forestry, post-harvest facilities, irrigation system and farm to market road projects costs PhP243, 500,000 or 72%. Rural water system cost on potable water system is PhP 11,000,000 or 3.24% and institutional development costs PhP6, 052,000 or 1.78%. The cost distribution by component is shown in Table 1.

VIII. BENEFITS AND POSSIBLE NEGATIVE EFFECTS

Agricultural Production and Enhancement and Agri Industries

Benefits would accumulate in terms of improved production and incomes both from improved primary production and value adding activities related to agri-industries development. Increased production and income are expected from rice production yielding from 3.5MT to 4.0MT annually with the introduction of irrigation systems, particularly for rice and other crops and improved sustainable agronomic practices. The improved quality of rice product would also command higher prices. The enhancement of oil palm production, introduction of rubber as new product, would generates employment opportunities, and increase income for the farmers. With improved product quality, the primary produce is also expected to fetch higher prices. Value adding activities related to agri-industries such as coffee, rice and corn processing are also expected to contribute to increased income.

Farm to Market Roads The construction and or repair of dilapidated earth-filled farm to market roads would reduce the hauling, and transportation cost from the landholdings to the nearest FMR or local market. Basic social services delivery officers are expected to have more frequent visit in the settlement beneficial to the settlers. The reduced transportation cost will greatly help school children in the elementary, high school and collegiate levels in commuting to and from the schools. The affordable transportation cost encourage school aged children and parents to access higher education levels. Good roads cater good services especially during emergencies. Improper maintenance of these roads will bring back the residents to the basics.

Potable Water System Provision of the safe potable water system frees the residents from water borne diseases. Children five years old and below would have improved mortality rate. Time saving in fetching water in the creeks/rivers could be used for economic activities. And lifespan of residents could be lengthened with safe drinking water. Safe potable water system encourages capitalists to live and invest in the settlement. The processed foods for sale in the market using potable water will also likely pass the standards of the Food and Drug Administration.

Institutional Development ARBs, farmers, other individuals, organizations, and LGUs strengthen service delivery providers, improve capacities, increase income, and enhance performances. There are also other indirect benefits that may be derived from capacitating residents.

Sultan Kudarat SDP Page 16

The Increased income will generate revenue collection that could be returned to the constituents through basic social service delivery. More commuters travel because of low transportation cost and could help increase the income of drivers, operators, and owners of vehicles. In turn, they will redound to increase in taxes. Individuals provided trainings acquire full knowledge, and understanding what is in his environment. Value education helps preserve the loss of culture among IPs because of the influence of people in the environment. The roads constructed near the forest zones inhibit illegal loggers to do illegal business and other illegal activities.

Apart from the above, the Plan has numerous indirect benefits. With increased incomes and business activities, local revenue generation is also expected to increase and this could be plowed back in terms of improved basic social services. Also, with more children going into higher education as a result of improved transport access, there are better chances for higher income opportunities. Access to the outside world would also benefit them in terms of new developments in technologies, health, governance and others.

Some indirect negative effects of the development efforts in the settlement are also expected and the Plan shall ensure that mitigation measures are put in place to avoid or minimize the impact of these negative effects.

The internal conflict by and among different tribe, families and skirmishes brought by external forces such the presence of armed groups can be settled and stabilized by the introduction of different infrastructures.
