Sex and The Great Depression

Kudzu was first grown in the South as a shade plant on porches. In the early 20th century, the U.S. Government paid farmers to plant the vine to control hillside erosion and as feed for cattle. Civilian Conservation Corps workers planted thousands of hectares of kudzu during the Great Depression. To Kill it out….you have to kill the roots.
