THE Agro-Climatic Advisory Portal (ACAP), designed by the Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office 1 (DA-RFO1) Adaptation and Mitigation Initiative in Agriculture (AMIA) Program, will guide farmers on how to avoid, recover from, and adapt to climate change effects and unpredictable weather conditions.
Recently introduced to at least 50 local government unit (LGU) representatives in Laoag City, Ilocos Norte, and Vigan City, Ilocos Sur, it will show farmer cooperatives and associations how to avoid costly climate-related mistakes, use new technologies and easily bounce back from disaster. Connected to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), the portal uses the ever-changing weather and climate as the basis for recommending outlooks for growing crops.
