I've Had My Crystal Ball Out Again

You're an Argentinean farmer. Your wheat crop has just been decimated by drought. Your soybean and corn crops look like going the same way. Your cattle are dead or dying of thirst. The government don't seem to care. They are still taxing you to the hilt on agricultural exports. You've been on holiday throughout January, but those holidays are about to finish. The President is away overseas whilst the country is in the grip of the worst drought for over 100 years. The coming harvest, such as it will be, doesn't begin until March/April. You've got a bit of time on your hands, and the missus is giving you grief. What are you going to do??

Has anyone got any matches? I'm getting Déjà Vu here.

Can you smell burning?
