Synopsis

This book explores the influence of crop conditions and the livestock trade on the financial markets from 1900-1935. The author explores agricultural developments and their intersection with the broader economy, particularly in relation to the establishment of the Federal Reserve. The book shows how changes in the weather, pests, and disease imposed sharp price swings in agricultural markets, causing cycles of boom and bust in livestock and grain markets. These cycles rippled through the banking system and the broader economy. By analyzing these events, the book provides a unique perspective on the Great Depression and the New Deal policies that reshaped the American economy.
