Extension Climate & Extreme Weather Programming: Successes, Challenges & Opportunities â Publication
This report, created in response to an Extension Foundation RFP, provides a national inventory of Cooperative Extension programs and practices related to climate and extreme weather. The report includes a database with insights into programming successes, challenges, and opportunities, aligned with Project Drawdown and other frameworks. The project team also interviewed Extension professionals to learn about factors involved in this type of programming. The data was compiled by a multi-state team from various institutions.
The publication was created by a team of Extension professionals to help the agricultural industry become more resilient to weather extremes, climate variability, and climate change. Based on the Weather Ready Farms model developed by Nebraska Extension, the publication focuses primarily on field crop farms and producers in the Great Plains and Midwest regions of the United States. However, many of the topics, concepts, and discussions explored in the publication - including best practices - can be used and adapted for other regions and agricultural operations.
