The Dust Bowl and the American Farmer

Question 2 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

What economic conditions did farmers face in the 1920s? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
rising debt
B
increased crop prices
C
increased production
D
increased costs

Explanation

Farmers increased production during the 1920s, but this contributed to a surplus of crops and falling prices. Lower crop prices made it harder to repay loans, so farmers faced rising debt; they also dealt with increased costs. Crop prices did not increase, so B is not correct.
