Being so dependent upon agricultural production led to the inevitable development of machinery to help it move along. With the help of tractors, agricultural production has gotten to a scale larger than ever imaginable before the invention of mechanical farming equipment. Development in this area led to development in many other areas of the country, making America what it is today.
