What makes a flood any more special then any other environmental issue that it would require a special handout? Isn't this why you take crop insurance?
Select areas get dried out and those farmers get no assistance. Where is the government handout then?
Seems pretty unfair that certain issues in certain areas with the right political representation get funding. Best example was in southern Alberta when ag minister Shirley had grasshopers in her area and provided funding. She never gave a shit that areas not in her riding got froze out.
Risk keeps economics in check. Ag has little to no risk and that is not good.
