1/ For @mauriciomacri, 2018 was the year Murphy’s law was in full effect. According to this fact check by @Chequeado, the drought in ‘18 was the worst on record (going back to 1961). And will cost the country upwards of $8 billion in export income.

2/ the fact checkers note that the ‘18 drought’s impact on the economy is less severe than the ill-timed drought of ‘08/‘09. A reason is due to the government’s reduction of export taxes on agricultural goods, which increased overall production compared to the Kirchner period.
