"You need a dry sense of humour"
WHEN rains fell in May after 11 dry years in a row, Bruce Crafter
borrowed from his bank to sow a wheat crop on the family farm where he
grew up in western Victoria. Like thousands of Australian farmers who
have watched their livelihoods wither away under the country's worst
drought in a century, Mr Crafter was encouraged by forecasts of follow-
up spring rains in September. He sold one-third of his expected bumper
crop on the futures market. But the rains never arrived, and the crops
that promised salvation have failed. With no intended irony, Mr
Crafter says: "We've been washed out."
"Wash-out" is the term farmers are using to describe the contracts
they can no longer fulfil. Australia is one of the world's biggest
wheat exporters. The crop underpins the country's outback farming
belt. After recent glitches to wheat supplies in North America and
Europe, hopes were riding on the Australian crop, due for harvest by
December, to help fill a gap in global demand. The hopes now seem
forlorn. In September, the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and
Resource Economics, a government research agency, cut its forecast of
Australia's wheat production this year to 15.5m tonnes, one-third
below its June forecast. The failure of crucial spring rains since
then means production is likely to be even less.
The farming crisis is so bad that the federal government in late
September announced A$1.1 billion ($1 billion) in drought aid. It
included payments of A$150,000 each to the most debt-ridden of
Australia's 130,000 farmers to leave their land. Some city Australians
