Farmers favored government regulations of railroads because they sought to curb the monopolistic practices and price discrimination that often disadvantaged them.

By advocating for regulations, farmers aimed to ensure fair pricing and reliable access to transportation, thus enhancing their economic stability and competitiveness in the market. These regulations were seen as a means to level the playing field against powerful railroad companies.
