So, despite the soon to come Enrique-indubitable-fact that evil, evil, evil Macri has caused drought and frost, Argentina is expecting a good 2018/19 wheat crop?

Don Alberto would be much better off posting his own opinions instead of trying to guess those of others.

Something is deeply wrong when a developing country such as Argentina is holding its breath on the weather to know how things will be next year. Add to that the wild swings of commodity prices, and you will begin to understand the absolute ridicule of trying to take the country back to the early 20th century's golden agro-exports age.

But hey, why Macri needs to worry? As long as a few cheerleaders under Don Alberto's direction keep clapping, the president, like a modern Nero, can keep dreaming he is the darling of the U.S., the IMF and the G20 while the country goes down in flames.
