Answer:

Earned less

Falling prices of goods

New technologies were expensive

Step-by-step explanation:

In the beginning, the farmers missed out the prosperity in the 1920s because of the Great Depression. The farmers were facing problems after the end of World war I. They were in debt as earning was so little, not enough to feed their family. Some other reasons were falling farm prices and agriculture goods, and the need to purchase expensive machinery.
