The correct answer is "The government required rationing and encouraged growing of victory gardens."

The United States Food Administration was the federal agency in charge of rationing food and creating propaganda to encourage citizens to preserve food. This included cutting down on the amount of bread citizens ate on a weekly basis.

Along with this, the planting of victory gardens allowed for increased agricultural output. This meant more food that could be sent to the troops.
