The Interstate Commerce act of 1887 helped the farmers making the railroad companies t charge the uniform rates.
Therefore the option “C” is correct which states that the farmers also paid equally as of other customers and were not overcharged.
However, the law did not allow the government to fix the rate but to monitor the situations and take stock.
