Description: The Agrarian Reform Infrastructure Support Project (ARISP)
Phase III is a foreign-assisted project of DAR, designed to
provide basic support services to help develop Agrarian Reform
Communities (ARCs). It is funded from a concessional loan
from the Government of Japan with counterpart financing from
the DAR, Local Government Units and the beneficiaries. The
project timetable is from CY 2008 to CY 2014.
The project espouses the concept of integrated area
development in the ARCs wherein basic infrastructure,
organization / institutional, agricultural and enterprise
development support are combined to produce incremental
growth in productivity and income among farmers. Specifically,
the project considers the provision of farm-to-market roads
(FMR) and bridges, irrigation projects, post harvest facilities, and
potable water supply system under its infrastructure component.
For institutional development component, this entails the
organizing and strengthening of various organizations in the
ARCs to build their capabilities to operate and manage the
infrastructure facilities and agri-business in a sustainable basis.
The project also supports the development of viable
agribusiness in the ARCs to harness the agricultural potentials,
add value to agricultural products, and make them more
competitive in the market.
In CAR, actual project implementation commenced in CY 2011.
From CY 2008 to 2010, the pre-implementation activities
