Answer: The federal law known as the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) was adopted in 1933 as a component of the U.S. president Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. The law offered farmers with subsidies in exchange for decreasing the amount of certain crops that they produced. The purpose of the subsidies was to limit overproduction so that the agricultural prices could increase.
