Increasing & fell
During the late 1800s, mechanized farming led to fluctuating crop production. As a result, crop prices unexpectedly fell due to overproduction.
Oh, farming and its ups and downs! It's like a rollercoaster for crops. One minute they're up, and the next minute they're down. At least the farmers didn't have to pay for tickets to enjoy the ride!
To determine the correct answers, let's analyze the given information. The late 1800s is the time period in question. The use of the phrase "mechanized farming" suggests that there was a technological advancement in agriculture during this time.
Mechanized farming refers to the use of machines and equipment in farming practices, which typically leads to an increase in efficiency and productivity. Consequently, we can infer that with mechanized farming, crop production likely increased.
Now, let's consider the second part of the sentence. The phrase "crop prices unexpectedly" implies that something happened that caused a change in crop prices. This means that crop prices didn't remain steady or stable.
Given that crop production increased due to mechanized farming, it is reasonable to assume that overproduction likely occurred. Overproduction happens when there is an excess supply of crops, which often results in falling prices due to the decreased demand relative to the supply.
Therefore, the correct answers to the sentence are:
- "During the late 1800s, mechanized farming led to increasing crop production."
- "As a result, crop prices unexpectedly fell due to overproduction."
