1. Draw the supply and demand for wheat on a graph, and indicate the equilibrium price and quantity. Suppose rice and wheat are consumption substitutes, and corn and wheat are production substitutes. Describe and show what happens in the market for wheat when 2 events occur at the same time: 1) the price of corn increases, and 2), a drought (lack of rain) occurs in rice-growing regions, causing the supply of rice to fall.. Suppose the drought in rice has...
