What was the economic effect of the Great Depression on America’s farmers?

History

KiRa [710]3 years ago

Farmers were probably the hardest hit group of people during the Great Depression. They were already having a tough time from the 1920's because during WWl, they had been making record numbers of crops that were being sent over seas, but once the war ended they ended up with a surplus which dropped the price of wheat and farmers could hardly make a living. Farmers had also bought tractors and farm equipment with an installment plan, which means they buy now and pay later. This caused many farmers to go into debt because once the depression hit they no longer could afford to pay them off. To make matters worse, unsafe farming practices, like not rotating crops, cause the top soil to blow off and huge dust storms, called the Dust Bowl occurred making life miserable for farmers and their families.

The Spanish silver mines of Peru and Bolivia provided Euorope with a whole new currency. In what way would the Ottoman Empire be
Dvinal [7]

The correct answer is A) The silver mines of Peru and Bolivia would have little effect on the Ottoman Empire.

The Spanish silver mines of Peru and Bolivia provided Europe with a whole new currency. The way would the Ottoman Empire would have been influenced by these New World mines was the following: "The silver mines of Peru and Bolivia would have little effect on the Ottoman Empire."

The powerful Ottoman Empire had poor har-working people that basically lived from agriculture. We could say that society was an agrarian one. Under the Ottoman Empire, people lived from what they produced in their small farms and livestock. They traded some products with other people and make a day by day living.

So that is why we say that the silver mines of Peru and Bolivia did not have any effect on the Ottoman Empire's value of its economy.
