How Can Jamaican Farmers Handle Increased Rainfall?

Is there anything that Jamaican farmers can do to better handle increased rainfall?  Saturated soil and devastated crops have been a feature of the recent storm activity, but what lessons have been learned, and how can Jamaica mitigate against crop failure? To discuss farming, flooding, and the future we are joined by PETER THOMPSON CEO of the Rural Agricultural Development Authority (RADA) and Denton Alvaranga Vice President, of the Jamaica Agricultural Society (JAS).
