10 - Day Regional Agri-Weather Information

DEKAD NO. 25      1 – 10 SEPTEMBER 2024

Philippine Agri-Weather Forecast
The weather systems that will likely affect the whole country are the southwest monsoon, tropical cyclone, low pressure area, and localized thunderstorms.

During the first half of the dekad, Luzon, Western Visayas, and Negros Island Region will experience cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms. However, Ilocos Region, Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Aurora, Quezon and Bicol Region will experience stormy weather with rains and gusty wind due to a weather disturbance. The rest of the country will have generally good weather except for some chances of possible isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms. Gradual improvement of weather condition will be experience in areas affected by the tropical cyclone as it moves away the landmass of Luzon. However, the southwest monsoon will continue to bring cloudy skies with rainshowers and thunderstorms in the western section of Luzon throughout the forecast period. The rest of the country are expected to have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with possible occurrences of isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.

During the early days of the dekad, winds coming from southwest to southeast will prevail over the northern and eastern sections of Luzon while the rest of Luzon will have winds from the northwest to southwest. The remaining areas of the country will experience winds coming from the south to southwest. A weather disturbance is expected to bring gusty winds in Northern Luzon, Aurora, Quezon Province, and Bicol Region as it moves towards north. After this, Visayas and Mindanao will continue experiencing winds from the south to southwest while Southern Luzon will have southwesterly wind flow. The rest of Luzon will have winds from the southwest to southeast. During the second half of the forecast period, winds from the south to southwest will gradually prevail in the country.

Throughout the forecast period, moderate to rough seas will be experienced in Luzon while rest of the archipelago will have slight to moderate seas.

ENSO ALERT SYSTEM STATUS: LA NIÑA ALERT (Issued: 28 August 2024)

El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-neutral conditions continue to prevail over the tropical Pacific Ocean. Most climate models combined with expert judgments suggest a 66% chance of La Niña forming in Sept-Oct-Nov (SON) 2024 season and will likely persist until the first quarter (Jan-Feb-Mar) of 2025. With these model probabilities, borderline La Niña or La Niña-like conditions will be likely during the forecast period.

https://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/climate/el-nino-la-nina/monitoring
PAGASA will continue to closely monitor the developing La Niña. All government agencies concerned and the general public are encouraged to stay updated and use the information for guidance in taking precautionary measures to mitigate the adverse impacts of these phenomena.

Farm Advisories

Farm Advisories:
Consider using raised beds for planting to reduce the impact of waterlogging on root systems. Increase the organic matter in the soil by adding compost or manure. This improves soil structure and enhances water infiltration and retention. Implement water harvesting techniques to capture excess rainwater for use during dry periods. Strengthen field borders and terraces to prevent water from entering fields during heavy rains. Ensure farm roads and pathways are well-drained to prevent water accumulation and maintain access during wet conditions. Secure that transport vehicles are equipped with waterproof covers or tarps to protect goods from rain and moisture.

DA turns over multi-million Peso interventions and facilities to Guimba, N. Ecija
Author: Kristel Joyce Merle, DA-AFID | 29 August 2024

Agriculture Secretary Francisco P. Tiu Laurel Jr. joined the provincial government of Guimba, Nueva Ecija, on August 29, 2024, in the massive distribution of various interventions and assistance to local farmers.

Through its various banner programs, the Department of Agriculture – Regional Field Office III (DA-RFO III), distributed 500 pouches of yellow onion seeds valued at ₱788,875, 1,000 pouches of red onion seeds worth ₱503,500, 180 bags of organic fertilizer valued at ₱87,120, and 4 units of pumps with engine sets, each valued at ₱77,890.

Aside from these, 200 farmers received ₱5,000 each through the Rice Farmers Financial Assistance (RFFA) program of the Rice Competitiveness Enhancement Fund (RCEF), while 612 other farmers were provided fuel assistance cards.

In 2023, DA-RFO III distributed a total of ₱443,322,600 in RFFA funds to the province.

Also under the RCEF-Mechanization component, the Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (DA-PhilMech) inaugurated a ₱60.29 million Rice Processing System II at Barangay Casongsong. The facility includes a state-of-the-art multi-pass rice mill and three units of recirculating dryers.

“Sa mga nakalipas, karamihan sa mga naipapamigay na postharvest facilities ay may kaliitan. Ngayon, mas malaki at moderno na ang matatanggap ng ating magsasaka. Mayroon pa tayong dalawang malalaking postharvest facility ang ilalagay sa Nueva Ecija na ten times ang laki kesa sa mga nauna nating ipinamigay,” Sec. Tiu Laurel said.

The RPS II was awarded to the Cooperative Enterprise for True Economic Reform, which consists of 172 farmer members who will directly benefit from the program.
