Why did erosion of the farmland occur during the dust bowl?
The Dust Bowl was a 'perfect storm' of problems that struck the American prairie in the 1930s. There was a drought that lasted as long as eight years in some places, windstorms, and bad farming practices. Extensive deep plowing left the soil with no grass roots to keep it from eroding. Lack of rain turned the soil into dust and the windstorms blew the dust around the flat landscape.
