What happened in the boll weevil?

1 answer

The boll weevil was a beetle that invaded and devastated cotton crops in the southern United States in the early 20th century. Its infestation caused severe economic hardship for cotton farmers, leading many to switch to other crops such as peanuts and soybeans. The boll weevil's presence ultimately led to a transformation of the agricultural economy in the region.
