The program that paid farmers not to grow crops is known as the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), which was part of the New Deal in the 1930s. The AAA aimed to reduce agricultural overproduction and raise crop prices by providing financial incentives to farmers to limit their production of certain commodities. This program sought to stabilize the agricultural economy during the Great Depression.
true
The program that paid farmers not to grow certain crops like cotton, corn, wheat, and tobacco is known as the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA). Initially established in 1933 as part of the New Deal, the AAA aimed to reduce crop surplus and stabilize prices during the Great Depression. Farmers received payments to limit production, thereby helping to raise market prices for these commodities. The program has undergone various revisions and reauthorizations since its inception.
Farmers were paid to not grow crops during the First New Deal primarily to reduce agricultural overproduction, which had driven down prices and harmed their livelihoods. This program was part of the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), aimed at stabilizing the agricultural economy by decreasing supply to increase prices. By incentivizing farmers to limit production, the government sought to restore their income and improve overall economic conditions during the Great Depression.
To a large degree it does. However farmers grow crops for profit. If they are not going to get paid for their work then they will not grow them. Which is reasonable.
The Indian farmers were forced to grow Indigo and Cotton crops and were also paid less
It paid farmers to plant crops that protected the soil.
Under the Agricultural Adjustment Act, Franklin Roosevelt initiated a program where the government would pay the farmers NOT to raise certain livestock, such as hogs, and NOT to grow certain crops, such as corn, cotton, wheat, and tobacco. With the money from this program, poor farmers could pay off their debts from World War I and get back on there own feet. They would be paid, while also not having to pay for supplies to grow their crops. By raising crop prices
In history: Farmers would probably have paid their taxes in produce - crops, animals, etc.
1 billion dollars muhahahahahaha
During the Great Depression, the Agricultural Adjustment Administration (AAA) implemented policies to reduce crop production in order to raise agricultural prices and stabilize the economy. Farmers were paid to not grow certain crops, which aimed to decrease surplus and increase demand. This strategy was part of the New Deal efforts to support struggling farmers and improve their financial situation. The payments provided farmers with much-needed income during a time of severe economic hardship.
the civilian consevation corps paid the farmers with brazilian prostitutes
It costs less to grow crops with slaves who don't have to be paid, than it does to grow crops by hiring people to work on your plantation.
