| The El Nino events of 1982 and 1997 are the biggest ones in history. Both El Nino events resulted in decreased rainfall, particularly during the dry season of May-August. The 1997 El Nino caused a higher decrease in rainfall than the 1982 one. Consistently, in Java and Sulawesi the decrease in rainfall was higher compared to the national average in both 1997 and 1982. Since Java and South Sulawesi are major food producers (about 65 per cent of national food crop production), El Nino events could disturb national food security. In Kalimantan, the decrease in rainfall was relatively high during the 1997 El Nino, but quite low during 1982. On the contrary, Sumatera, Bali and Nusa Tenggara experienced a decrease in rainfall which was quite high in 1982 but... |

| This study is the second phase of the El Nino study which was undertaken by the CGPRT Centre in five vulnerable countries namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Papua New Guinea. The first phase of the El Nino study did not fully reveal the extent of El Nino impacts on production at the farm level, what efforts are undertaken by farmers to reduce possible production decline and what constraints are faced by farmers to implement efficient coping mechanisms. El Nino impacts on household food security, mitigation efforts applied by farmers to overcome their consumption problems and the role of local institutions or the local government in handling the consequences of El Nino were also neglected by the first phase of the study. Accordingly,... |
