At the start of WW2 many farmers were commissioned to mass produce food for the soldiers. this meant that farmers needed more help on the farm. since there was also a need for soldiers, it was harder for farmers to find helping hands. many farmers were left with horrible soil conditions after the great depression. meaning it was also much harder for farmers to start up again. -
during WW1 farmers were also commissioned to mass produce. only there was a lot less people but better soil conditions. this shows continuity because farmers still had to mass produce with limited soldiers.
