One factor that contributed to Georgia's early experience of the Great Depression was the state's heavy reliance on agriculture, particularly cotton. When crop prices plummeted due to overproduction and falling demand, many farmers in Georgia were hit hard financially. Additionally, the state suffered from a lack of economic diversification, with many industries relying on the success of agriculture. These factors combined to make Georgia one of the first states to feel the effects of the Great Depression.
