In the 1930s, the US Midwestern prairies experienced a severe ecological disaster known as the Dust Bowl. This was caused by a combination of prolonged drought and poor agricultural practices, which led to the over-farming of the land. As a result, topsoil was depleted and large dust storms swept across the region, displacing thousands of families and devastating the agricultural economy. The crisis prompted significant changes in farming techniques and government policies aimed at soil conservation.
