Hotter than usual conditions are already wreaking havoc on crops in certain U.S. states, and causing mass bird deaths along Mexico\u2019s Pacific coast. As El Ni\u00f1o takes hold and intensifies across a significant portion of the U.S. throughout the summer, there is still time to build agility and resilience within supply chains.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cedd971 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cedd971\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>El Ni\u00f1o\u2019s ripple effect on the supply chain will be felt at every level \u2014 from the bill of materials, all the way up to the boardroom. The key to navigating El Ni\u00f1o is recognizing past patterns, and taking proactive measures to protect operations. These four strategies can help the supply chain industry better adapt to the fallout of this unpredictable weather phenomenon.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae34526 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ae34526\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c86eb81 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c86eb81\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">1.
