Reducing Climate Risks for Rice Farmers in the Philippines
Summary
Climate change risks, specifically typhoons and intense rain, are causing significant income losses for rice farmers in the Philippines' Pangasinan and Tarlac provinces. Future climate projections indicate shifting rainfall patterns that will further threaten agricultural sustainability, necessitating local government intervention.
Key insights
- Rice farmers in the Pangasinan and Tarlac provinces identify typhoons and continuous intense rain as the most frequent climate-related hazards, which have resulted in farm income losses of 70-90 percent of the total value of losses for both upland and lowland rice farms.
