That's true too. However, if we moved out the rest of the crops, there might be enough left for the few that would be difficult or impossible to move elsewhere. You can grow tomatoes anywhere; not so with almonds, olives, or even grapes.
It's likely that in a disaster, it won't be possible to salvage anything. But if it is, eat the annuals and try to save the longest-lived perennials.
