I have never forgotten my farmer roots. Drought means death: I never wish a drought upon farmers. Drought can mean death to the farmer's financial prospects. No crop leads to little or nothing to sell at home or international market, which entails huge loss of farm income, even bankruptcy for overextended, foolish young farmers that borrowed too much in the good years, and may not survive the poor years.
Drought can mean death; if there is not enough to eat millions of hungry people can starve.
Drought means death in that a lush green Eden is now transformed into something stunted, ugly, borwn and bleak.
May the NoDak farmers receive their moisture, Dear God.
