Yes, it's something we don't do now, but I believe the technical capabilities are there, and they need to be assembled and operationalized. Environment Canada produces monthly and seasonal forecasts. Those forecasts could be used to force the same models we use for flood prediction or drought prediction on a seasonal basis. I think that would have tremendous benefit, as you mentioned, because it would be information in time to be actionable by the farmers to make the shift so they can stay in business.
