I beg to differ here.
1 can be cause and 2 can be its effect. As there woudl be less rain this year, its going to affect food grain production, that will in turn affect import/export .... hence would affect GDP.

correct answer..
estimates can be wrong,so revised GDP estimates can be change due to any economic reason
so lowered revised estimate is effect of some casue,
where as deficient in rainfall is again an effect of environmental cause
