This project tests hail suppression technology to reduce significant crop losses in Alberta, indicating potential global impact.
Hail causes $40 to $50 million, and sometimes twice that amount in crop losses each year in Alberta and up to $I billion loss around the world. The Alberta Government established the Interim Weather Modification Board and the Alberta Hail Project in 1973 to hasten the development of hail suppression technology and test it on a wide scale in Alberta. The new project is an extensive five-year hail suppression test incorporating the former Alberta Hail Studies (ALHAS) research program….
