The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK), through the LANDBANK Countryside Development Foundation, Inc. (LCDFI), and LANDBANK Palawan Lending Center, successfully implemented the Digital Financial Education (DxFinEd) under ASCEND Program and AGRISENSO Plus Lending Program Orientation in the municipalities of Balabac, Bataraza, Rizal, and Narra, benefiting approximately 1,198 farmers and fisherfolk.
The initiative equipped participants with practical knowledge on financial management, including saving, budgeting, risk management, responsible borrowing, digital registration,
mobile banking, and available financing opportunities. To further strengthen the participants' awareness of agricultural risk protection, the Philippine Crop Insurance Corporation (PCIC) also conducted a session on the Registry System for Basic Sectors in Agriculture (RSBSA) Crop Insurance Program, highlighting the importance and benefits of crop insurance for farmers.
By bringing together financial education, digital financial services, credit opportunities, and agricultural risk protection, LANDBANK, LCDFI, and their partner agencies continue to advance
financial inclusion and empower rural communities toward greater economic resilience and sustainable development
