How has the effect of natural disasters on agriculture in South Carolina been different from the effects on agriculture in the rest of the country?
A. Droughts were responsible for a tremendous loss in crop production and
revenue in South Carolina; in other parts of the country, droughts had little
effect on crops.
B. In the late 1800s, a series of deep freezes devastated cotton production in South
Carolina; in other parts of the country, temperature drops did not result in crop
loss.
C. Floods in the central part of the country caused widespread devastation and destruction; in South Carolina, flooding has not been a significant agricultural problem.
D. Farms in South Carolina were more susceptible to destructive hurricanes; in
other areas of the country, farms were generally more protected from
hurricanes.
