DA to prioritize RSBSA-registered farmers, fishers in fuel subsidy distribution
Farmers and fisherfolk registered in the Registry System for Basic Sectors in Agriculture (RSBSA) will be prioritized for the PHP500 million fuel subsidy.
As of March 8, 5,463,735 individuals have registered with the RSBSA.
Registered beneficiaries are given priority for various agricultural and fishery assistance, including cash, farm inputs, fuel subsidy vouchers, and crop insurance.
The RSBSA serves as an electronic registry for individuals and groups involved in agriculture, containing personal and socio-economic information.
Proof of ownership of functional machinery is required to receive the fuel discount.
The successful distribution of the P5,000 Rice Competitiveness Enhancement Fund-Rice Farmers Financial Assistance (RCEF-RFFA) was attributed to the RSBSA list of rice farmers.
