But, I'm in wet tight soil, it takes a second year before a drought really shows up on me. Ground water table is about as soil surface, so a drought is a good thing for me, in small pieces.....

If I have a bit of a drought, prices are going up. And I still get some crop. Weed pressure is much less, farming is easy.

If I have a flood, everyone tells me to be glad for the rain, I work twice as hard fighting mud to raise half a crop, prices are going down as the dry areas are likely getting good crops, and its generally a long, miserable, losing year.

I understand everything is the other way around if you are living on dryland.
