When uncontrollable factors such as lack of rain cause farmers’ wheat crops to fail, fertilizer dealers, seed dealers, truckers, and mechanics lose business. Moreover, fuel suppliers are unable to sell enough diesel to make a profit.

There's no obvious conclusion to draw from the stimulus. Let's just observe that various groups can have their business affected when uncontrollable factors cause farmers' wheat crops to fail.

Could be false. There could be other factors that cause these businesses to be harmed outside of farming itself.

Could be false. We cannot conflate “lack of rain” with “below average” rain. Rainfall could be only slightly below average and not amount to a lack of rainfall. The wheat crops might be able to grow even if rainfall is below average.

Could be false. We don’t have any information from the stimulus to support a judgment about responsibility for wheat crop failure. Perhaps farmers are still responsible because they should have planned for a lack of rain.

Could be false. We don’t have any information in the stimulus to support a claim about major economic crises or what could lead to such crises.

Must be true. We know that a drought (lack of rain) can lead to harm to the business of fertilizer and seed dealers, truckers, mechanics, and fuel suppliers. These consequences to business and profit are not limited to farm productivity. Farm productivity involves how much food a farm produces; business losses to people other than farmers is not part of farm productivity.
