Negros Island, Philippines is well known as “Sugar Island”. Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs), former sugar plantation workers who got their own land through government agrarian reform, are producing sugar cane for Mascubado sugar with an assistance from ATC. Sugar farmers need a huge amount of production fund as it takes almost one year from planting to harvesting. ATC has extended low-interest loan service to 7 producers cooperatives by APF 1st and 2nd loan .
