This dust storm was caused by severe drought coupled with decades of extensive farming without crop rotation, fallow fields, cover crops or other types of techniques to prevent wind erosion, and over farming.

Just an FYI for anyone wondering who wrote this, it was KORENA lol :)

The major causes of the Dust Bowl in the 1930s were prolonged drought, unsustainable agricultural practices such as over-tilling and monoculture farming, and a lack of soil conservation methods. These factors led to the erosion of topsoil, creating massive dust storms that devastated the Great Plains region of the United States.
