Answer:

In the mid-20th century, agriculture was the main component of Georgia’s economy.
Roughly 60% of Georgia’s population was rural in 1950.
During the Great Depression, some farmers were paid NOT to grow crops.
The use of tractors and mechanical combine harvesters impacted the need for human labor on farms.
Beginning in the 1970s, more people have been moving to the city than moving to the countryside.

Explanation:

These are the statements that correctly describe Georgia's agricultural transformation during the mid-20th century. Before the 1930s, Georgia was primarily agricultural. Most residents of Georgia were farmers, much like they had been in the past. However, during the Great Depression, Georgia's farming industry changed significantly. After this period, modern technology transformed the farming industry, which now required a lot less people to operate. This led to people moving to the city more than to the countryside, a pattern that continues to this day.
