Typhoon Mangkhut Documentation in the Philippines

Greenpeace bear witness of the devastation caused by typhoon Mangkhut in the Northern part of the Philippines, the country's top rice and corn producing provinces at a time when rice harvest has barely started, and when the country is already reeling from rice shortages.

An estimated of P26.7 billion of agricultural damages is caused by typhoon Ompong (Mangkhut) according to the Department of Agriculture.
