NFRDI - BFAR Joint Force on FLA Assessment /
Maria Salvacion R. Ferrer
Non-payment of rentals, cancellation of contracts, unutilized and abandoned areas are among the many problems of the Fishpond Lease Agreement (FLA) Program in the Philippines. Consequently, during the 1st NFRDI Governing Board (GB) Meeting held last January 9, Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary William Dar directed NFRDI to work closely with the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) to conduct a comprehensive inventory of the issued FLAs in the country. Data that will be gathered from this inventory will provide information to improve the FLA Program and to conceptualize appropriate policy on fisheries
