Why was the point of the dust bowl?
To fully understand the importance of soil to the "dust bowl" one must first understand what the "dust bowl" is/was. The "dust bowl" was the area of rich agricultural lands in the mid western United States which, due to deforestation, severe drought and other factors became barren. As the vegetation succumbed to the drought the soil was exposed to the wind. The wind picked up and blew the topsoil away. Reforestation and wind breaks now serve to mitigate the winds effect on the soil, and better farming practices help to hold the top soil in place. To answer the question, soil is important to any region but is extremely important to the "bread basket" of the United States that was once turned into a "dust bowl".
How many deaths were caused by the Dust Bowl?
Due to inaccurate record keeping at the time and that most of the affected regions were sparsely populated/rural it is impossible to know exactly how many people died. Some estimates go as high as 7,000. At least 2.5 million were left homeless or were forced to move by 1940. The long-term side-effects of dust inhalation and related diseases likely caused many more deaths over time.
