Synopsis (short abstract) El Niño is caused by the warming of sea surface temperature in the Pacific and can affect air and sea currents. This phenomenon is expected to result in reduced rainfall that may lead to droughts, stronger typhoons and higher risk of forest or grass fires (PAGASA). Severe damage in farms, fisheries and forests may affect 30 percent of the country’s population relying on agriculture as a primary source of livelihood.

    Assisting farmers in el niño affected areas in the Philippines- TCP/PHI/3603 2017
    Also available in:
    El Niño, which swept the Philippines from 2015 to 2016, had a significant impact on agricultural production and food security. The project aimed to restore agriculture-based livelihoods of drought-affected farmers in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) and the Region XII, where a state of calamity was declared in four provinces. The project provided relevant agricultural inputs to the most affected and most vulnerable farm households and technical assistance through capacity building of the relevant institutions, extension workers and farmers in building resilience to shocks, effective drought management and more robust monitoring and forecasting systems.
