LA TRINIDAD, Benguet — The freezing temperature now being experienced in the Cordilleras is wreaking havoc on the country’s vegetable bowl in northern Benguet.


Frost, a solid deposition of water vapor from saturated air, has so far damaged 100 hectares of vegetable and cutflower farms in Atok town, Mayor Connie Balao told The STAR yesterday morning after checking the situation.


Balao estimated that Atok farmers have already incurred at least P10 million in losses due to the frost, which has been observed since last November.
