The head of U.S. Farmers and Ranchers in Action (USFRA) says agriculture needs additional resources to predict the long-term impacts of climate change.
CEO Erin Fitzgerald tells Brownfield producers should have climate-smart risk modeling. “So that our farmers as they are making decisions on their farms, we can see 5, 10, 15 years out what that does. We are definitely not at that place.”
She says weather extremes pose the biggest threat to farmers and ranchers.
