    The doctrine of primary jurisdiction holds that where initial jurisdiction over a controversy lies with an administrative body due to its special competence, courts should not arrogate this authority to themselves. In this case, the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) possesses primary jurisdiction over the petitioner's application for land conversion, as DAR has the necessary expertise on the matter as the administering agency.
