THE sight of acres of land where his crops had flourished covered by floodwaters last week brought 23-year-old farmer Rikki Paria to tears.
Standing near his water-logged cucumber vines, which had started bearing, Paria said he loves agriculture but has already suffered several heartbreaks and financial devastation as a result of floods.
