In order to better the plight of farmers who lose millions of dollars because of climate change-induced unexpected weather, the Obama administration will set up 10 centers around the country.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack disclosed the list of the sites on Wednesday. He said the move is aimed at empowering the agricultural industry to acclimatize to new conditions. Farmers have suffered huge losses in recent years because of extended fire seasons, invasive pests, flooding and drought.

Vilsack told reporters, "It's a reflection of the changing weather patterns that will indeed impact and affect crop production, livestock production".

He said the seven new climate hubs and three sub-hubs will play a key role in helping producers take right decisions to have minimal effects of climate change on their yield.

Also, they will be enlightened about how they can adapt to new ways of agriculture. Sub-hubs are intended to focus on narrower issues like what specific crops should be used to have maximum yield when weather conditions are not optimum.

Ames, Iowa; Corvallis, Ore.; Durham, N.H.; El Reno, Okla.; Fort Collins, Colo.; Las Cruces, NM; and Raleigh, NC along with three sub-hubs in Davis, Calif.; Houghton, Mich. and Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico are the 10 sites described by Mr. Vilsack.

Vilsack said the Federal Government is trying to synchronize with entities such as universities, tribal communities and state governments to curb losses from shifting temperatures.

European authorities are also planning to setup advanced weather monitoring and notification systems to help farmers.
