I believe this should be one of your options after searching for more context on your question.

Answer: It eliminated the need for as many agricultural workers, forcing many to move to cities to find jobs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mechanization of farm equipment meant that more work could be done in a shorter time frame with less people. Many different inventions happened during the Industrial Revolution such as the cotton gin. Because of this, less people were needed to work in the fields.

The mechanization of farm equipment lead to urbanization during the
