Anecdotal. Watching ag day for years, the amount of large scale farming in the central South American region has increased significantly. Expect increased runoff and decreased natural cooling from old growth forests. Not saying other things aren't a factor but as we see many farms in the US returning to cover crops in the off season for soil amendment, sand dams in Africa for water capture...we will need to find practices that help central and south South America find their balance.
