    The document summarizes the history of agrarian reform in the Philippines from the American colonial period through present day. Early reforms focused on the "friar lands" issue and tenant-landlord relationships. Later reforms established profit sharing arrangements and regulated sharecropping contracts. The 1950s saw reforms replace previous organizations and govern relationships through agriculture acts. Currently, the agrarian system provides farmers with higher incomes, improved tenure, market access, and reduced poverty through programs like CARP that redistribute lands and support small farmers.
