Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The potential for prolonged dry weather due to Super El Nino poses a risk to the agricultural sector in Kedah. If water shortages occur, irrigation for padi fields might be temporarily suspended, and water supply could be prioritized for domestic use.

Mohamad Sabu previously oversaw the supply of fertilizer to padi farmers in Kedah, an area where fertilizer distribution has been affected by corruption.
