In an effort to drive up food prices as well as renew the soil, crop rotation was encouraged by the government. For the first time in American history, farmers were able to sign up for federal programs that paid them to plant certain crops or paid them to simply let the soil lie barren. Farmers agreed to limit the number of acres planted with corn and wheat, crops which depleted the soil and increased plants like grasses and beans which have the opposite effect on soil.
