                    [Summary] => The Department of Agriculture (DA) is paring down this year’s corn production target due to the combined carryover effects of the El Niño phenomenon and prolonged rains in major corn-producing areas in Mindanao.


 "It’s a double whammy for the corn sector. We were hit by flooding in late December which delayed planting in the Cagayan Valley and later these same areas were hit by the dry spell in the first semester. On the other hand, there was a lot of rains in Mindanao," said Agriculture Secretary Domingo F. Panganiban.

                    [Summary] => The Department of Agriculture (DA) is paring down this year’s corn production target due to the combined carryover effects of the El Niño phenomenon and prolonged rains in major corn-producing areas in Mindanao.


 "It’s a double whammy for the corn sector. We were hit by flooding in late December which delayed planting in the Cagayan Valley and later these same areas were hit by the dry spell in the first semester. On the other hand, there was a lot of rains in Mindanao," said Agriculture Secretary Domingo F. Panganiban.
