As stocks continued to fall during the early 1930s, businesses failed, and unemployment rose dramatically. By 1932, one of every four workers was unemployed. Banks failed and life savings were lost, leaving many Americans destitute. With no job and no savings, thousands of Americans lost their homes.

The Great Depression was the worst economic downturn in the history of the industrialized world, lasting from 1929 to 1939. It began after the stock market crash of October 1929, which sent Wall Street into a panic and wiped out millions of investors. Over the next several years, consumer spending and investment dropped, causing steep declines in industrial output and employment as failing companies laid off workers. By 1933, when the Great Depression reached its lowest point, some 15 million Americans were unemployed and nearly half the country’s banks had failed.

During the nineteenth century, American farmers had to face different economic problems such as oversupply or poverty. However, they always found a solution to these problems to continue working.

During the early nineteenth century, the United States was a predominantly rural country and a large part of its population belonged to the working class and farmers. Farmers settled on the great plains.

During this time there was a large amount of vacant land, which attracted the attention of different people to establish themselves and claim them as their own, this situation caused an oversupply of agricultural products to be generated in the medium term, which affected all the farmers of this area.

Also, the development of rail lines was an opportunity to transport their products in a faster way. However, the owners of the railways took advantage of this and charged high fees so many poor farmers had to continue using conventional means of transport such as horses that took longer.

Note: This question is incomplete because the text is missing. However, I can answer it based on my prior knowledge.
