1929, the famous milk dumping incident was a large-scale economic crisis in the United States from 1929, which led to the stock market crash, the Great Depression, and the reduction of people's consumption and purchasing power.

Before the outbreak of the economic crisis, the United States vigorously developed the production industry, the number of farms increased greatly, and dairy products were overproduced. Things are scarce in the economic crisis, so dumping some dairy products and reducing the circulation of products can stabilize the price of milk.

The dairy farmers who participated in the strike had an incident of "blocking the road and pouring milk"

Because of the milk strike, many "independent" dairy farmers have different ideas, and some people secretly sell milk cheaply for their lives. Therefore, in order to "prevent other dairy farmers from selling milk at low prices", dairy farmers who participated in the strike also had an incident of "blocking roads and pouring milk". ?

1934,65438+10, thousands of dairy farmers blocked roads in Chicago, Illinois, USA, and dumped more than 65438+10,000 pounds of milk from other dairy farmers by "blocking milk". Similar milk pours have occurred in California, Wisconsin and Iowa. ?

This behavior is actually that some "independent" dairy farmers who participated in the strike angrily forced other "independent" dairy farmers to pour milk. In some places, bloody clashes even occurred between the milk convoys and the striking dairy farmers.
