The drought is Australia's worst in a century. Econornist Justin
Smirk says that production of wheat and rice might Jall by as much
as 20 per cent. He believes the drought will change agricultura!
practices forever. 'It won't be easy to grow crops such as rice in the
future. We might have to stop farming in very dry areas.'
Despite the signs, the government refuses to blame the drought
on climate change. But scíentíst Peter Cullen is more certain.
'Many of our agricultura! areas will become hotter and drier. They
may stop producing crops altogether. This could be the end for sorne
of Australia's 100,000 farming businesses. People now working
on the land may have to take up more productive jobs in the cities. ·
