Andrés Barsky, an Argentine geographer collaborating in the project, conducted interviews with 60 AACREA farmers in the two study regions (north of Buenos Aires and north of Córdoba). The goal was to assess (a) what farmers knew about climate of their region, (b) what they did not know, and (c ) what they thought they knew, but was not correct.
As a result of these interviews, a series of knowledge gaps and misunderstandings were identified. These gaps were addressed in an article titled “Cómo hacer del pronóstico climático una herramienta útil” [How to turn a climate forecast into a useful tool], published in the April 2008 issue of the AACREA magazine.
