Drought associated with El Niño affects Morelos field; insurance for producers to be activated

In Morelos, Mexico, approximately 70% of temporary crops show losses exceeding 70%, primarily affecting maize production in southern regions like Axochiapan. The agricultural loss is linked to drought caused by El Niño, prompting authorities to activate catastrophic insurance programs. The state has allocated 107 million pesos to support affected farmers, covering crop and livestock losses due to drought or hail. Inspections are underway across 232 ejidos and communities, with preliminary assessments indicating some areas may see yields as low as 50-60% of average. Several municipalities, including Tlaquiltenango and Cuentepec, are among those most impacted. Officials warn that the affected area could grow further as some ejidal reports remain pending.
