What was the purpose of the agricultural adjustment act? to farmers raise more crops to encourage greater livestock production to raise depressed crop prices to make farmland more valuable

The correct answer is: "to raise depressed crop prices ".

The Agricultural Adjustment Act was issued in 1933 as a federal law which was part of the New Deal, the packet of measures implemented to boost the US economy after the 1929 crisis.

The prices of agricultural products were extremely low due to an excess supply or surplus situation in the market.

The money to fund those operations was obtained from taxes collected from firms that processed those agricultural products.
