Answer:

Wages would decrease because the quantity of labor supply increases. The rent earned by Louisiana landowners will increase because the quantity demanded for land will increase.

  1. Wages: when the quantity supplied increases without an increase in the quantity demanded, the price will fall.
  2. Rent: when the quantity demanded increases without an increase in the quantity supplied, the price will rise.
