FOOD SHORTAGE IS A HUGE PROBLEM
Th food shortage was caused by three things: the drain of manpower into the army, the Union occupation of food-growing areas, and the loss of slaves to work in the fields.
These things caused inflation as well.
Rice

meat
short amounts of meat only allow family's to pay for one meal of meat per week. The prices have gone up due to this as well like inflation.
Corn

WHAT WE CAN DO
Because of the food shortage the pricing had gone up for each product cause there's less of the product. We can also farm more products to help solve the shortage which would produce more food.
