Dual-purpose of Climate DSS Education Service C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS

Drivers of climate variability and change (ENSO, long-term climate projections) Effects and potential implications on the SE Climate and worldwide Impacts of variability/change on agricultural commodities and water resources Risk mitigation and adaptation strategies Improve resource use efficiency (irrigation management, carbon & water footprints) Education Components How cover crops, pasture-based rotation systems, variable rate irrigation help mitigating climate-related risk? C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS

Climate monitoring Short-term and seasonal forecasts Translation to ag- related variables (Degree-days, chill hours, crop yield) Alert systems (freezes, disease risk) Service Components NOAA monitors the Pacific Ocean but UF-IFAS monitors your field! C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS

Our top challenge is to translate climate information into decisions Monitoring & Weather Forecast What field can I work on this afternoon? When can I plant my seeds? Should I apply N fertilizer to my fields? Will it be dry enough to harvest? Should I cut hay today? Cold protection tonight? C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS Flooded peanut field. Doug Mayo – August Blueberry freeze, UF-IFAS, February 2002.

Our top challenge is to translate climate information into decisions Seasonal Climate Forecast Strategic Decisions Best crop/variety to plant this season? How much should I invest in fertilizer? How to apply N? Should I purchase/increase crop insurance coverage? Marketing decisions? Should I invest in winter pasture or feed? C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS

Our VERY top challenge is to translate climate change projections into decisions Long-term Climate Projections ? ? C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS * Decisions at the producer level, not in terms of national policy and long-term planning Making *decisions based on long-term climate projections is much more difficult! One of the main reasons for extension faculty to be reluctant about addressing climate change issues is the lack of “practical solutions”

Our VERY top challenge is to translate climate change projections into decisions Long-term Climate Projections ? ? How do I become more resilient to climate extremes? Should I invest in land somewhere else? C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS Making *decisions based on long-term climate projections is much more difficult! One of the main reasons for extension faculty to be reluctant about addressing climate change issues is the lack of “practical solutions” C. W. Fraisse, UF-IFAS * Decisions at the producer level, not in terms of national or regional planning
