Purchase farms

Explanation:

The Farm Security Administration (FSA) was a New Deal agency created in 1937 to combat rural poverty during the Great Depression in the United States.

The FSA stressed "rural rehabilitation" efforts to improve the lifestyle of very poor landowning farmers, and a program to purchase submarginal land owned by poor farmers and resettle them in group farms on land more suitable for efficient farming.

The FSA resettled poor farmers on more productive land, promoted soil conservation, provided emergency relief and loaned money to help fanners buy and improve farms. It built experimental rural communities, suburban "Greenbelt towns" and sanitary camps for migrant farmworkers.
