Dust bowl
Nicholas dimopoulos
This started when
• The nutrients were removed
from the soil
• Wind erosion took place
• Lastly there was a drought
What the dust did
• Over 500,000 people were homeless
• Many families had to move away from the
great plains
• Farmland and homes were destroyed
• People were left hungry
Response
• Many citizens left their
homes in jalopies
• Began a great migration to
the west
• Many people died from
malnutrition and other
illnesses
The governments response
• F.D.R created a soil erosion service in
1933 to prevent this from happening
• The new deal enforced the effort
• Government subsidized farmers to
distribute livestock for food
The outcome
• It had a long lasting economic
effect but programs pulled the
nation back
• The acts are still in effect today
protecting farmers and soil
