the end of World War I
decreased family income
highly priced goods
increased farming incomes

Answer 1

A major cause of decreased demand for food in the 1920s was the **end of World War I**. After the war, many countries that had relied on imported food during the conflict began to produce their own food again, leading to oversupply and reduced demand for American agricultural products. Additionally, the transition from wartime economies to peacetime contributed to fluctuations in demand and could have impacted farmers' incomes and broader economic conditions.
