Kiwi Crisis

The article was about the crops in New Zealand. Kiwi is a major driver of the economy there, and they have found a disease in the fruit. The industry, which is worth more than 1 billion dollars is in trouble. This can have an effect on the entire world because if the cost of this crop goes up, it may inflate other fruits in the global market. I never thought kiwi could be in trouble!
