U.S Farm Workers

This graph shows the number of workers compared with the number of farms. I’m going to describe this situation below.

In 1910, there were nearly 14 million workers, working on 6 million farms. In that year there was the highest level of workers in the U.S until now. In the 30 years after that there was a decrease in the number of workers and a slight increase in the number of farms. Between the WW1 and WW2, the number of workers and the number of farms increased. In the following years after there was a huge fall in both of them. In 1985, the numbers stabilised until 2000.

These statistics show that with the years, there was a shortage of the farms and farmers. In 1990, there was the lowest level of the number of workers and the number of farms.
