DA takes charge of farm-to-market roads
Manila Bulletin
|October 30, 2025
The Department of Agriculture (DA) will be the government agency in charge of developing the country’s farm-to-market road (FMR) projects beginning in 2026—a move welcomed by the agriculture sector as a strong response against corruption.
The DA said on Wednesday, Oct. 29, that it will assume control of FMR projects from the controversy-riddled Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) starting next year.
This development was confirmed following a meeting between Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel and Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon to promote transparency in the implementation of infrastructure projects.
Tiu Laurel earlier accepted the Senate's challenge to take charge of FMR projects following the discovery of non-existent and substandard projects under the DPWH's watch.
