During the Great Depression, the government prioritized preserving a market economy for agricultural products over simply shipping excess food to areas in need. Transportation systems were largely disrupted, complicating food distribution. Other options such as exporting food were also considered rather than domestic redistribution.

1. Why didn't the government just arrange to have excess food commodities shipped to places

3) is wrong as there r some places where people Use to die due to hunger.
4) is wrong as they have the chance to export food grains, some other which dont get spoil for
few months.
