Which reform related to land ownership does RA 6657 focus on?

The focus of Republic Act 6657, also known as the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law (CARL) of 1988 in the Philippines, is primarily on agricultural land redistribution. This legislation was enacted to promote social justice and to provide equitable access to land for farmers and agricultural workers who had been marginalized and marginalized in terms of land ownership.

The law aims to reform the agrarian structure in the country by redistributing agricultural lands to tenant farmers and landless workers who were previously deprived of their rights to ownership and cultivation. By redistributing these lands, the law seeks to empower the agrarian sector, improve the living conditions of rural communities, and ultimately contribute to national development.

Understanding the context of RA 6657 clarifies its primary focus on changing land ownership dynamics in agriculture, rather than addressing issues related to urban development, maritime labor contracts, or employment rights, which are covered under different legal frameworks and policies. These other options do not align with the specific objectives and provisions set forth in the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law.
