Capehart Explains Weather And Climate Issues In Farming

Paul Shackow
William Capeheart, Ph.D.

In The Moment ... October 24, 2019 Show 686 Hour 2

One thing that has become very clear during SDPB's month-long coverage of the future of farming is that a lot of what makes a farm successful is out of the producer's control. Some of their success depends on weather, climate and other outside forces.

Climate Scientist William Capehart attempts to give a better understanding of what we're seeing in our region. Capehart is an Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology.

Lori Walsh is the host and senior producer of In the Moment.
