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.

This caused many farmers to go into debt because once the depression hit they no longer could afford to pay them off.
