Fluctuating Crop Yields and Economic Cycles

The question whether there is a correlation between fluctuations of crop yields and economic cycles has been answered very differently from the very start.
Description
Answers range from the thesis of a passive dependency of the industrial cycle on the state of the agriculture to the thesis of a passive dependency of the agricultural cycle on industrial cycles. As the author explains in a short overview, Pigou and Robertson assume that the increase in purchasing power, which, they say, the agriculture experienced in the case of a rich harvest, triggers a commercial upswing.
According to Timoshenko, however, the low prices of agricultural products in the years of rich harvests have caused a stimulation of the whole economy. Following Arthur Spiethoff, the author suggests an analysis of the influence of fluctuating crops on the economic cycles in certain periods. For this purpose, he examines closely the harvest yields of the most important crops (and for some colonial countries the external sales volumes respectively), the prices of agricultural products, and of industrial raw materials for six European and six non-European countries.
