The price of crops isn't gaged by poverty in urban areas, but by the price that the farmer can sell the crop for. A good example of this is milk. Today in CA many dairies are selling off the cows because the price they sell milk for is too low. It costs more to feed and take care of the cows than they can get for the milk. Many would rather pour the milk down the drain rather than sell it for a lower price. It is the same with farmers and they would rather let the crop rot in the field than to sell it for a lower price.

No. Economic growth is the best way to reduce poverty. Economic growth creates jobs. Economic growth should not be sacrificed, it should merely be more inclusive. More people should experience the benefits of it.
Economic growth is a good thing. When economic growth slows or stops, people start worrying about themselves and stop worrying about others. When economic growth is good and people have jobs and money, they are more interested in helping others. When corporations make money, they expand and hire more people. Then those people have money to purchase goods and services. The companies who sell those goods and services hire people to produce those goods and provide those services.

What is the structural-functionalist view on poverty?
Structural functionalism is a macro level perspective (tries to explain large scale social phenomenon) that believes society is an organized, harmonious bundle of social institutions. The institutions such as educational, religious, economic, etc. all function together. The natural state of society is one of harmony. Everything is society has a function (hence the name functionalism). Since it thinks everything has a function, it justifies the status quo (the existing society) and is conservative.
S-F would argue that poverty would not exist in society if it did not serve a function. Poverty employs a lot of people (social workers, non-profit organizations like thesalvation army, united way, medicaid, etc., politicians who focus on policies relating to the poor). This is your strongest answer.
