One of the things I mentioned in my opening remarks is the development of a practical tool with and for producers, as well as with advisers and researchers. It's unique to Quebec. This type of tool doesn't exist anywhere else in the world. We were able to develop it thanks to Quebec and federal funding.
It's one of the most effective tools. We've observed that most producers who create their climate plan, that is, who review their climate history and anticipate future climate conditions, can work with a certified adviser trained in the subject to identify the main risks and prioritize them to define adaptation strategies and measures for their operations, which are often completely different from those of their neighbours.
With most producers who take this approach, within two years we've found that 55% of the targeted actions have been implemented. A certain percentage of these actions were postponed or revised, and a number of them were withdrawn.
Therefore, we're also conducting studies to see the impact of this tool at the producer level. I think that, for producers, these are important avenues for working proactively on programs to protect themselves against certain risks. It's important to understand that there are risks we can address, and others we can't prevent, that is to say major climate hazards and extreme situations like severe droughts or heat waves. You've experienced these in Abitibi on several occasions. No matter how we adapt, we cannot adapt to completely extreme situations.
