Solution

Dear Student,

US President Wilson said "Plant more wheat, wheat will win the war".

United Kingdom, France and Russia were Members of Allied powers and America was on the side of the Allies. During the First World War the world market boomed. Russian supplies of wheat were cut off and the USA had to feed Europe. US President Wilson called upon farmers to respond to the need of the time and support the allies to wage the wars by fulfilling their domestic demand for wheat.
