Question

How did the 1877 Supreme Court case Munn v. Illinois affect farming?

Answer 1

States could regulate railroads, which resulted in fair treatment for farmers.

Answer 2

Good Morning!

The Munn v. Illinois was a legal dispute involving state limits for grain storage. Although farmers have fought against this law, the Supreme Court has ruled that its interference in private property is constitutional. Soon, the farmers lost and had to respect the stock limits.
