Answer:

It brought electricity to rural areas; it contributed to the end of sharecropping; it helped modernize agriculture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Georgia is one of the states that most benefited from Franklin D Roosevelt's New Deal because the President would summer in Warm Springs, Georgia. He knew some of the state's problems first hand. FDR implemented federal programs that paid farmers to stop producing cotton as a means to address the oversupply that was occurring and to raise the price. Roosevelt's intention was to help the tenant farmers and sharecroppers to become self-supporting small farmers and there were some local successes in that the New Deal was the first federal program that concretely helped rural residents to improve their farms and homesteads. Yet the small landowner was still outdone by the larger planters who took advantage of federal funds to mechanize their farms.
