Answer:

B. Production of food in Europe increased, and European countries' need to purchase U.S. food supplies decreased.

Explanation:

When the need to purchase supplies decreased, there was less of a demand, and prices for farm goods dropped. Lowered prices mean that farmers weren't making as much money, and they needed money in order to pay back loans and mortgages.
