National Farmer's Alliance
The National Farmer’s Alliance was a political and economic group formed in the late 19th century to support farmers’ interests. It helped advocate for better railroad rates, fair pricing, and policies addressing agricultural challenges. The alliance aimed to unify farmers across regions to influence government decisions, promote cooperation, and improve their economic well-being. It also played a role in the rise of the Populist movement, seeking to challenge larger economic powers and ensure farmers had a stronger voice in politics and policy-making.
