Farmers were actually one of the few groups that were able to expand during that time, (dust bowl farmers excluded), because unlike those city folks, whose stock went to zero, agricultural products had some worth, and they still had their jobs. my Grandfather and my Father nearly doubled their farming operation during the depression. They bought new equipment, and did a lot of custom work such as plowing and threshing. I don't think Martian land has deflated to $1.00 per acre yet, has it?
