The best answer choice that aligns with the cause "?" leading to the effect "by the mid-1920s, many farms had been foreclosed" is:

many farmers planted too much and were unable to harvest the crops.

This choice suggests overproduction, which is a likely reason for financial difficulties leading to foreclosures.
