My experience in a community-supported agriculture is that it's hard to plan ahead. In wet years we will harvest lots of pumpkins but fewer tomatoes (crops are not protected) and in dry years it's vice verca. And the years do become more extreme regarding temperature and precipitation.

But I think in the future we will try to grow new crops that are better adapted to arid conditions like soybean.
