Farm machinery and factory production decreased the need for farm labor. True or false?

History
1 answer:
Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Machines have their place on farms and ranches. Researchers have calculated how the tractor's plowing, planting, and harvesting has saved tens of millions of people and draft animals from backbreaking toil. And personal experience has taught me the indispensability of a tractor for lifting and moving heavy objects on a ranch. But broadly adopting an industrial model in agriculture -- especially for raising animals - has been disastrous.

In the Unsettling of America, Wendell Berry builds perhaps the most compelling case that technology has been misapplied to agriculture. Industrialization, he argues, is the primary cause of our depopulated farms and rural towns. In 1790, 90 percent of our people were engaged in agriculture. Today, technology and decades of federal policy that deliberately reduced agricultural jobs have shrunk the farm community.

For the first time in mass media history, the speed of communication surpassed the speed of transportation with the development
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Telegraph

Explanation:

Before the invention, information had to be send by horses, boats, trains, and any other transportation. This would take very long and it was ineffective for a lot of train stations. If a locomotive had to abort a departure than the communication would take a long time and it was usually by horses. After the telegraph was made this helped the train station be more effective by knowing exactly when the trains would go to which station. This made the stations much more smoother and have more departures and less waiting time for the people boarding on to them.
