The agricultural economy of the 1920s experienced an ongoing depression. After expanding during the First War to sell food to Europe, there was now an overproduction as many counties returned to grow their own crops.

There was too much food on the market and farmers could not sell their products. The prices of food were falling and many farmers went into debt.

Between 1920 and 1930, <em>one in four farms was sold </em>and many farmers <em>migrated to urban areas.</em> This lead to the spreading of rural poverty ( one-fifth of the American population lived on the land). More than 600,000 farmers went bankrupt. The result of all this was severe agricultural depression with many of the previously prospering farms<em> falling into decay and being sold o</em>r <em>abandoned</em>. Where farming was the main industry, like in the South, the already low wages became even lower and the farmers' situation worsened.

Damm [24]
Native American tribes, including the Omaha, Oto, Missouri, Pawnee, Arapaho and Cheyenne, all ceded (gave up) land in Nebraska to the U.S. government. In all, there were 18 separate treaties between 1825 and 1892 in Nebraska alone. These treaties were a part of a much larger pattern of land transfers that allowed an explosion of European settlement. By 1850, the tribes had seen more people moving through along the Platte River. The Homestead Act, which gave free land to settlers, meant that large numbers of immigrants were now going to stay in the area. In this section, there are two major stories about Native Americans during the settlement period. First, there is the story of how native people met the challenges of living on this plains landscape. And second, there is the story of conflict as more and more people tried to live on the same land.

A market economy is characterized by no goverment intervention <em>(this rules out options B and C). </em><u>Therefore, property cannot be public and needs to be private</u>.

<em> </em><u>Economic decisions are reached by the free interactions (free competition) of the economic agents</u> (households, firms and public sector) in the domestic and international markets. Prices and exchanged outcomes are determined by the equilibrium between the desires of producers and consumers, both domestic and foreign ones, as a <u>market economy partcipates in globalization and market integration processes.</u> (which rules out option D).
