The Grange specifically pressured state governments to regulate

Answer
A
the railroad industry.
B
the alliance cooperatives.
C
the sharecropping system.
D
the crop-lien system.

Explanation

The Grange, a farmers’ organization, pushed state governments to regulate railroads and grain-storage businesses because farmers believed their fees were unfair. The correct choice is “the railroad industry.” The crop-lien system was a separate source of farmers’ debt, not the main target of the Grange’s state-level regulation efforts.
