Abstract

The El Niño phenomenon of 1997-98 wreaked havoc in Peru. Torrential rams in several regions washed away roads, houses and existing infrastructure. The fishery sector was especially affected as fish production suffered dramatic declines. This was the story in most parts of Peru, as was highlighted in the last issue of SAMUDRA Report.
