Under EO No. 4, the beneficiaries can skip paying the annual amortization and the 6 percent yearly interest required of them under the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law (CARP).
The beneficiaries are required to pay a specified amount to the Land Bank of the Philippines, but the EO gives them reprieve considering the COVID-19 pandemic and other global events that disrupted the production of crops.
