If you google it, you will find recent articles on China and Russia’s terrible drought. In particular, within the past few days, we had a article on China’s meager food production on Free Republic. China is lacking in water to use for crop growth, the drought is so bad.

Like Texas’ cattle industry, Russia’s rural lands have burned in a big way and more is expected. At one point the fires were so bad, cities like Moscow were threatened. Fort Worth was threatened when the Texas fires were at their worst. I think we have the fires under control in Texas at the moment. Russia was not prepared and equipped for their fires like the US is.

All the major food producers have been knocked on their heels this year. While you are at it, google coffee production failure in South America...now that is scarey! Coffee prices are expected to rise 17% shortly.
