what measure did the populist party call for to help indebted farmers?
unlimited coinage of silver
maintaining the gold standard
more government research
eliminating all farmer debts
The Populist Party called for the unlimited coinage of silver as a measure to help indebted farmers. This was because it would increase the money - supply and raise prices for farm products, making it easier for farmers to pay off their debts. Maintaining the gold standard would have restricted the money - supply. More government research was not a key debt - relief measure. Eliminating all farmer debts was not a policy they advocated.
