The DAR logo shows the Department acronym representing the institution and its role as the lead agency in the implementation of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP).  The sun radiates its light into the field of green divided into 12 segments representing the original 12 regions covered by the program.  Green stands for fertility and productivity while yellow represents hope and a golden harvest for agrarian reform beneficiaries who are the recipients of the services provided by the Department via CARP. Both colors imply that economic growth and sound rural development can be achieved through agrarian reform.
