Natural hazards can impact various industries differently based on their nature and the specific hazards involved. Among the options provided:
A. **Agricultural** - This industry is often the most affected by natural hazards such as droughts, floods, hurricanes, and pests. Such events can directly affect crop yields, livestock health, and overall farming operations.
B. **Clothing** - The clothing industry is less directly impacted by natural hazards compared to agriculture, though supply chain interruptions can occur.
C. **Mining** - While mining can be affected by certain natural hazards (such as earthquakes or floods), the impact is often mitigated through engineering and safety measures.
D. **Oil** - The oil industry can also be affected by natural hazards, particularly hurricanes and spills, which can disrupt production and refining.
Given these considerations, the industry that would be MOST affected by natural hazards is:
**A. Agricultural**
