....the loss of farmland due to flooding.

I just don't buy it.

Sure, this year's crops are destroyed. Perhaps some land is affected by sand deposits, etc, or even affected by pollution.

Fences, roads, and other man-made structures can also be adversely affected or destroyed.

But the storyline that the land is lost for a generation? Come on.

A hundred years ago when I was in college I was taught that periodic flooding was what made a lot of farmland as productive as it was. Of course, I was also taught there was a coming Ice Age. :lol:
