“Some days all me and my husband eat is bare rice. We can’t catch no fish. We have no vegetables. Everything rotten and die from this flood,” Gloria Miguel says.
Miguel, a farmer, is one of many flood victims of St. Monica, Upper Pomeroon, Region Two, who are unsure of how they will make out in the coming months due to the devastation caused by recent flooding.
She told Stabroek News that when the floods came all of her produce was ready to be reaped. However, before she could do anything there was an estimated seven feet of water covering her farmlands.
