Agusan del Sur

Agusan del Sur extends across 3,856 square miles in Mindanao, containing extensive river systems and agricultural lands bordered by seven neighboring provinces.

The province formally separated from Agusan Province through Republic Act No. 4979 on April 10, 1967, establishing Prosperidad as the provincial capital.

Indigenous communities of Manobo and Higaonon tribes maintain their traditional practices, languages, and crafts throughout the settlements of Agusan del Sur.

The Manila-Butuan Road connects multiple municipalities within Agusan del Sur, facilitating transportation of agricultural products including rice, corn, and coconuts.

The Agusan River, the largest waterway in Mindanao, flows through the province, supporting local ecosystems and serving as a primary transportation route.
