The vulnerability of Bicol Region to meteorological hazards such as typhoons, floods, drought, high magnitude rainfall and related hazards such landslides is underscored. The recurrent impacts of these events have wreaked havoc on environment, economy and society throughout the region.     The agriculture sector, particularly the rain fed and upland agro-ecological zones which is largely dependent on climatic conditions, is one of the most affected, putting food security at risk.
