Through DA's Philippine Crop Insurance Corporation (PCIC) and Land Bank of Philippines (LBP), the initial checks were released to 58 banana farmers from different cooperatives in Compostela alone.

PCIC Regional Manager Bonifacio Pales said that they are expecting to complete the release of the remaining indemnity checks amounting to P13 Million to around 90 banana farmers after a week.
