ABSTRACT This research focuses on examining in detail the effect of rainfall linked to the 2017 El Niño phenomenon on the consumption of households located on the northern coast of Peru. Using data from the INEI National Household Survey, the average real monthly per capita expenditure was calculated during the period 2016-2017, a fundamental metric that determines the consumption behavior of households in those years. Likewise, geosatelital data from the Terraclimate database are incorporated to evaluate both the level of precipitation and the individual exposure of each home. The methodology adopted included the use of a double difference econometric regression, which made it possible to identify the effect of the treatment on those treated. In other words, it was quantified how the intense rainfall associated with El Niño affects consumption in homes on the northern Peruvian coast. The results revealed that, on average, consumption experienced a reduction of 3.6% as a result of these precipitations. In the double differences regression used, a group of control variables will be considered in which it was found that key variables such as income, sex, construction material of walls and ceilings, area of residence, property title and access to drinking water, demonstrated be significant in explaining variations in household consumption. These findings highlight the complexity of the factors influencing consumption behavior in the context of extreme weather events.
