..but the drought mentioned yesterday hasn't screwed up every harvest. A large number of small-hold farmers feeling the wrath of the drought are those planing the government subsidized, Hybrid maize (Monsanto). And, though the high-tech crops produce higher yeald and stand up to pests, they've done poorly with the recent deviation in weather patterns.
