House·20th Congress·Filed Jul 15, 2025

An Act to Increase Farm Productivity by Reducing Land Fragmentation

In plain language

The bill aims to boost farm output by letting farmers own larger plots—up to 24 hectares for individuals—while removing the need for DAR approval on land sales and conversions. It shifts land‑use classification to local governments and sets penalties for violations.
