A farmer steers a banca in a ricefield submerged by floodwaters in San Simon, Pampanga in northern Philippines October 29, 2015, more than week after the province was hit by Typhoon Koppu. Authorities and aid workers in the Philippines are assessing losses and providing assistance for survivors of Typhoon Koppu, which killed 58 people and caused 8.6 billion pesos ($185 million) of damage to farms and fisheries. The Department of Agriculture reported Typhoon Koppu, known locally as Lando, damaged more than 330,000 hectares (815,000 acres) of farmland, destroying 510,000 tonnes of crops, including 464,000 tonnes of rice.
