The author in the passage states that cloud seeding, a method of reducing hail has been effective in protecting crops from hail. Some prominent bits of evidence mentioned in the passage are based on laboratory experiments, evidence from Asia and local studies. However, the lecturer gives several reasons to question the evidence given in the passage. She says that its not all clear that cloud seeding has been all effective.
While the passage states that experiments support the idea that cloud seeding is effective, the lecturer disagrees to it by stating some facts and explanation on it. She says that silver iodide creating snow instead of hail might be true but silver iodide cannot prevent any precipitation from forming clouds. Also, seeding all the clouds will increase the risk of drought and problems from water scarcity.
On evidence from Asia, the lecturer states that cloud seeding has been tried in urban areas where air polluted particles may have been responsible for the desired results and so cloud seeding may not work in unpolluted rural areas in United States.
Finally, on local studies, the lecturer disregards the passage by stating that no evidence actually exist that tells the hail damage to crops has been reduced. She also says that natural variation in cold weather has nothing to do with cloud seeding.
