This was caused by long periods of drought combined with decades of extensive farming without crop rotation, leaving fallow fields (plowed but unseeded) and cover crops (crops to cover the fields to prevent erosion).

Farmers plowed their fields heavily and lost the grasses and moisture that kept soil in place during droughts and high winds. The drought lasted 6 years (10 years in some places) causing starvaton and even death.

The storms/drought affected hundreds of thousands of families and during the severe storms of 1934 hundreds of people in Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas had died from the heat.
