With the climate type II of the Province the municipality occasionally

experiences
flooding on December-February especially in barangays of Nueva Era and San
Marcos in which this is geographically settled on low lying area.

With the successive rainfall from the neighboring province of Compostella

Valley and Davao Oriental, water flows down to Bunawan causing the Simulao
River and Agusan River to overflows to its river barangays. Because Bunawan has
the subsides for 2-3 months most especially in Nueva Era and San Marcos.
Affected crops are mostly on Rice, some might be on Palm trees and other
cultivated crops.

Moreover, the strong current of the water in the river causes a risk to
households living alongside the river because of the observed soil erosion. Thus,
this also affects the farm lands near the rivers.
