The correct answer is C) All available food was needed to support the war effort.

This propaganda poster from 1917 is encouraging Americans to "plant and raise" vegetables because "All available food was needed to support the war effort."

We are talking about the time of World War 1. The United States government had one creative idea to support the war effort. President Woodrow Wilson approved the creation of the concept of "Victory Gardens." He invited American people to use their backyards to grow basic crops and fruits in order to have enough food to send supplies to American Soldiers and allies.
