CRAO earlier reported that from 2010 to 2019, typhoons made up about 83.56 percent of agricultural production losses, followed by moisture stress at 14.58 percent, and floods at 1.7 percent.
CRAO director Alicia Ilaga said the vulnerability index of each municipality is considered in the selection process for Amia villages. Villar then argued that if the CROA identified typhoons as the biggest factor for agricultural production losses, then it should target the areas worst hit by such calamity.
