Answer:

Demand for agricultural labor declined

Explanation:

With cities increasingly industrialized, demand for agricultural labor has declined more and more. As a result, the rural area suffered what may be called a "rural exodus" which refers to the withdrawal of people from the rural area to the urban area in search of jobs and better living conditions, since the rural area is no longer able to sustain those people. Individuals who leave rural areas seek industrial space to survive and maintain themselves economically.
