D. not to plant part of their land and to kill off excess livestock.

Explanation:

The Agricultural Adjustment Act was a federal law of the United States, which was part of the New Deal program to restore the country's agricultural bonanza during the Great Depression.

It was approved by the United States Congress in 1933, in an attempt to reduce the rural production of certain necessities, in order to raise prices. It also gave rise to the creation of the Commodity Credit Corporation, to make loans to farmers, in addition to acquiring and collecting crops in order to maintain their value.

The system had limited success before being declared unconstitutional in 1936.
