A developing El Niño event is raising concerns over weather conditions, agricultural production and food security in several parts of the world.
The Associated Press reports that the phenomenon could bring severe drought and extreme weather, particularly across parts of Asia, while also affecting rainfall patterns, water supplies and fisheries.
Agricultural producers are closely watching the situation because changes in weather conditions could affect major food commodities, including rice and palm oil.
The potential effects extend beyond Asia, with disruptions to agricultural production and supply chains capable of influencing food prices internationally
