Many rivers are flowing through the Northern Plains and these rivers carry water through out the year. They also carry fine silt and deposited along the river banks. This is called alluvium. This alluvial soil is very good for crops and so many crops are growing in Northern Plains.

Was the decade of the 1930s called The Dust Bowl?
The Dust Bowl of the 1930s lasted about a decade. The dust bowl winds began in 1932 but the Dust Bowl got its name from the horrendous winds beginning in 1935. The primary area it effected was the southern Plains. The northern Plains were not hit so badly but the drought, the blowing dust, and the decline of agriculture in the region had a nationwide effect. The wind "turned day into night" and was so strong it picked up the topsoil on the ground and blew it away in large clouds of dust. The farmers who worked the Great Plains had been breaking up the sod and soil on the plain states since the time of the Homestead Act. Poor farming techniques and years of depleting the soil led to the soil becoming susceptible to the winds.
What two states in the dust bowl region that have panhandles?
