Normally this area gets a lot of rain and there is not an issue which is how they planned for it. We are in a drought cycle which happens from time to time, but this is obviously a rare set of two events happening at the same time. With Nicaragua, beyond the corruption and the instability of the government there, many had concerns about the ecological impact of it.

And how is the seed clouding that's occurring globally impacting this [it's very obvious now, for those unaware, there is GeoengineeringWatch.org and their documentary free on YouTube called "The Dimming"], as well as perhaps hurting crops and those local economies enough to shift power-buying power away from those food producers?

  There are no "global cloud seeding" projects. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/02/28/fact-check-false-claim-geoengineering-behind-climate-change-chemtrails/11360545002/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/02/28/fac... anything like that would be trivially observed by layperson scientists. (Also cloud seeding = more rain, drought = less rain)

    That's a very shallow view and understanding, no? You don't think weather patterns could shift? It's not black-and-white as "clouds = more rain" - as there's obviously the question of distribution. Likewise, water vapour in the atmosphere traps more heat - warming the planet; locally of course where there's cloud cover, at least initially, it will be cooler.

    Water is, mostly, only added to the atmosphere by evaporation. This is mostly solar, but can include indirect solar (wind) and industrial processes. Rain 'seeding' can be thought of as offering water already in the atmosphere an excuse to form rain and drop out of the atmosphere. It's about controlling where it rains rather than if it rains.

  I would guess that cloud seeding and Rain making has pretty minimal impact on Panama due to its proximity to large bodies of water. This is in comparison to continental climates where the atmospheric moisture is passing over arid land and different nations.
