Davao City prepares for El Niño


By Ruth Palo


DAVAO CITY: The City Agriculturist Office (Cagro) here has prepared for the impact of the El Niño phenomenon expected to hit the country starting next month.


Cagro head Edgardo Haspe said the city is about 80 percent complete in its pre-active phase activities designed to mitigate the effects of the dry spell brought about by the El Niño.


"We are almost done with it, maybe about 70 to 80 percent of the activities for the pre-active phase have been completed. We will review the activities we have conducted this Friday during our regular meeting with the Execom," Haspe said.


He said within the week, Cagro will be able to identify highly vulnerable areas in the city and then later check the available water sources that could be tapped.


"We will deploy water pumps that we can use for the said areas but if there is no available water source and the area is accessible we can use the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office water tanks," Haspe said.


The city, he said, allocated a budget through its disaster funds for the purchase of water pumps.


Haspe said that they were also able to identify irrigation facilities that need repair.


"The engineering department has been asked to make an estimate for the immediate repair to ensure that these irrigation facilities would work," he said.
