The Farmers' Alliance was formed in South Carolina in the late 19th century primarily to address the economic struggles faced by farmers, who were burdened by high debts, low crop prices, and exploitative practices by railroads and banks. The alliance aimed to promote cooperative buying and selling, provide education on agricultural practices, and advocate for political reforms to protect farmers' interests. It sought to unite farmers to increase their bargaining power and push for changes that would alleviate their financial hardships.
