Question

1. which factor contributed to the creation of the farmers alliance?○ lack of laws protecting farmers○ high prices for supplies○ increased success of farmers○ westward expansion

Explanation:

The Farmers' Alliance was formed in the late 19th century U.S. to address hardships faced by farmers. Farmers lacked legal protections against exploitative practices from railroads, grain elevators, and lenders, which pushed them to organize. High supply prices, farmer success, and westward expansion were not key drivers—farmers struggled with low crop prices, debt, and unfair systems, not success or expansion itself.

Answer:

○ lack of laws protecting farmers
