After doing research on how climate affects economy I was very Interested in finding information relating to agriculture and commodity prices. I found several good websites and started by reviewing major events that have occurred due to the climate such as the dust bowl. I found that there have been many devastating droughts and many floods throughout the history of the United States and other countries. These droughts and floods have impacted the way we farm today very much depending on location. The droughts and floods i read about Impacted the price of grain and cotton and caused farmers to spend more money to prepare land for planting.

It is very short and talks about a lot of things that have happened without going into detail about them.
