MCAP Work in Climate Resilience and Agriculture Guided by Lived Experiences

 

In a recent essay by Greg Klinger we learn about his own lived experiences with extreme winter conditions in Rochester, MN and how they relate to his work as MCAP's first Climate Resilience Extension Educator. The essay expands on some of the challenges Minnesotan farmers are already facing due to recent extreme precipitation events and how MCAP's climate extension programming will help integrate projections of future climate conditions in Minnesota into the decision-making tools and processes that agricultural stakeholders use on a regular basis.
