Answer:

The correct answer is option B. Because their workers fled the country.

Step-by-step explanation:

This happened during the Great Depression.

During the decade of the 30, the stock market fell and the companies began to declare bankruptcy. People did not have enough resources to buy, which caused a chain in which companies stopped producing and many of their workers were fired, while some fled the country in search of something better.

During this crisis, farmers produced at a record level, but having to lower prices because people had no money to buy their products, they were forced to generate even more production in order to pay their taxes and bills.

Many of them failed, having to declare bankruptcy or even losing their farms.
