FARMING ADVISORIES

AREAS AFFECTED BY THE WEATHER SYSTEMS

TD BISING, SOUTHWEST MONSOON, THUNDERSTORMS AND MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINS
• Inspect and clear the path of drainage that may carry excess water caused by heavy rains
• Make necessary preparations for the approaching storm or tropical cyclone
• Store harvested crops in waterproof, elevated storage areas.
• Dry grains using mechanical dryers if sun drying isn’t possible.
• Inspect and maintain farm machinery regularly to prevent rust and malfunction.
• Ensure drainage canals are cleared to prevent water stagnation.
• Construct or reinforce dikes and bunds to protect fields from runoff.
• Apply fungicide preventively if needed to reduce fungal disease risk.
• Postpone fertilizer application to avoid nutrient runoff and wastage.

ENSO ALERT SYSTEM STATUS

Weed regularly to help crops grow better by reducing competition for nutrients, water, and sunlight. Apply the right amount and type of fertilizer as recommended, and avoid using too much chemical fertilizer to protect the soil and nearby water sources. Clear old plant parts and weeds that attract pests and diseases. Make and use compost or organic fertilizer to improve soil health and reduce the need for chemical products. Stay updated with local weather forecasts and advisories from DOST-PAGASA to guide smart and timely farming decisions
