During WW1 farmers were producing goods which they then exported to European countries who were struggling. They became used to producing large amounts of produce and making high profits. However, when WW1 ended, there was no longer such a large demand for agricultural goods in Europe. The farmers now had a large surplus stock which they were unable to sell abroad. This was partly the fault of the American govt. Having raised taxes on imported goods to prevent Americans buying foreign produce, other countries retaliated by doing the same which left farmers struggling to sell produce within the USA.
The end of the war meant that the agricultural industry was declining, and people were unable to make enough money to pay their rent or mortgage. This led to poverty amongst farmers, and therefore they did not participate in the Boom of the 1920s.
