The Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), enacted in 1933 as part of the New Deal, aimed to assist farmers by reducing crop production and raising prices. It provided payments to farmers who agreed to limit their acreage and production of certain staple crops, thereby decreasing supply. This approach was intended to stabilize agricultural prices and increase farmers' incomes during the Great Depression. Additionally, the AAA sought to promote soil conservation and sustainable farming practices.

As a result, the economic relief intended by the AAA largely bypassed African American agricultural workers.
