American farmers were doing well in the early 1920s primarily because Europe relied on food supplies from the United States following World War I. After the war, European agricultural production was significantly disrupted due to the devastation caused by the conflict. As a result, many European countries turned to American farmers to meet their food needs, leading to increased demand for American agricultural products and higher prices for farm goods. This economic condition benefited American farmers during that period.
