THE Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) in Eastern Visayas said it needed a total of P55.45 million to finance about 120 various livelihood or micro-enterprise proposals that would benefit more than 2,000 agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) in the region.

In a statement, DAR Regional Director Sheila Enciso said the programs would be implemented under the Convergence on Livelihood Assistance for ARBs Project (Claap) of DAR-Eastern Visayas.
