The report finds that ENSO has detrimental impacts on the Philippine people, economy, poverty levels, and agricultural sector. The country has taken actions and enacted policies to respond to ENSO events, but these have not adequately mitigated the costs of ENSO impacts. That said, there are further actions the country can take to better prepare for these impacts. This is important because of the Philippines’ high exposure to climate shocks, the rural population’s climate vulnerability, and the prominence of the agricultural sector in the national economy. 2019-04-11T18:54:01Z 2019-04-11T18:54:01Z 2019-04 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/238871554203173760/Striking-a-Balance-Managing-El-Niño-and-La-Niña-in-Philippines-Agriculture http://hdl.handle.net/10986/31521 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Other Agriculture Study Economic & Sector Work East Asia and Pacific Philippines
