ABSTRACT : Koronadal Valley in Southwestern Mindanao has become a very productive area dominated by Christian Filipinos, with its boom cities of General Santos City and Koronadal City at both ends of the valley. This dramatic change was ushered in by the distribution of farm lots to settlers from 1939 to 1950 by the National Land Settlement Administration (NLSA). Demand for labor led to a massive influx of migrants until the 1980's, with particular ethnolinguistic groups dominating specific localities. The Green revolution and subsequent commercialization deepened agrarian differentiation. The prevalence of tenacy frustrated the ideal of owner-cultivatorship. The indigenous B'laan, who failed to establish themselves as settlers, retreated to upland areas. 56
