Synopsis

The problems of distribution of foods in the Confederacy trumped its problems of production of foods. The lack of railroads and roadways in the Confederate States of America lead to food riots and starvation. The Confederate Armies control over railroads and collected of wagons from farmers lead to destruction of rail lines and wagon roads. Food was distributed in the Confederacy mainly to soldiers in the field with less and less food going to civilians in cities and towns.
