El Niño threatens Eastern Visayas rice lands
CALBAYOG CITY — Over 33,000 hectares of rice farms are facing drought when the El Niño phenomenon hits Eastern Visayas towards the end of the year, according to the Department of Agriculture regional office in an information caravan on Thursday. Luisa Capili, focal person of quick response team at the DA regional office, said 30 towns in the region are facing the prospect of drought starting in late October when the El Niño phenomenon will start to be felt. She added that based on the climate outlook of Eastern Visayas out of the 136 municipalities and seven cities in the region, 30 local government units are likely to experience prolonged dry spell that will greatly impact rice and corn production of the region. “While we will still be affected by the El Niño phenomenon, the overall effect will not be severe due to persistent easterly winds falling in the region,” Capili said. She also disclosed that out of the 185,961 hectares of land planted with rice in Eastern Visayas, 33,013 hectares are forecasted to be affected by drought — 9,859 hectares in Samar, 6,294 hectares in Leyte, 4445 hectares in Biliran, 7,110 hectares in Eastern Samar and 6,304 hectares in Northern Samar. These are the towns of Tabango, Villaba, Sta. Fe, Alangalang, Palo, San Miguel and Ormoc City in Leyte; Naval, Caibiran, Biliran and Almeria in Biliran province; Paranas, Pinabacdao, Villareal, Sta. Rita, San Jorge, Gandara and Sta. Margarita in Samar; Quinapondan, Oras, Dolores, Sulat, Arteche, Taft, San Policarpo and San Julian in Eastern Samar; and Lavezares, Catubig, Pambujan and Las Navas in Northern Samar.
