    @nuwagaba2 I don’t know enough about the complex ocean-atmosphere interaction that drives the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the Pacific to say anything about the probability of another extreme El Niño in the next two decades. The ENSO cycle usually repeats every 2-3 years, but I don’t know what determines the magnitude of the events. Because the global temperature is increasing, my guess is that the chances of very strong El Niño events is increasing.

    We need to be prepared for it. We have been struck by the drought that we never saw coming. Many farmer's crops have been devastated which has led to high decrease in the food production of our society.
    Among the most affected farmers is a local farmer of four children whom we have been supporting with seeds and other materials to grow food for himself and his children. We're now doing our best to get him food until he can be able to grow his own again
