6. Effects of drought on agriculture crops Due to the drought seasonal crop growth was curtailedDue to the drought seasonal crop growth was curtailed The effects of the drought included the following:The effects of the drought included the following: –Harvested area for each crop was lower than planted area –Average unit yields for each crop were lower than initially foreseen –Overall quantity of production was lower than forecasted

7. Effects of drought on livestock Some domestic animals died due to lack of water and pastureSome domestic animals died due to lack of water and pasture A significant number of animals were forced to travel long distances to obtain water and pasture. As a result:A significant number of animals were forced to travel long distances to obtain water and pasture. As a result: Some animals became sickSome animals became sick Others required unforeseen expenditures to provide veterinarian attention, water and feedOthers required unforeseen expenditures to provide veterinarian attention, water and feed Production of meat, milk and cheese declined correspondinglyProduction of meat, milk and cheese declined correspondingly
