Is it OK to use "collapse" to express "being unable to carry on one's business"?
"Many farmers are faced with collapse because of cheap imported
agricultural produce." is acceptable?
Thank you in advance!

| However, I think it would be appropriate to say, "Many farmers are faced with financial collapse because of cheap imported agricultural produce." At least it sounds okay to me. |
