The Drought: Surviving the Dust Bowl

Until they tried to sell wheat, they did not fully feel the influence. The price of wheat is high demand, very high selling. And now only pennies can buy with Bushel. As a result, there are so many wheat that can not be sold. They may lose everything they have worked hard. Survival in difficult situations: Living with dust is not just an inconvenience but a way of life. Dust always enters home. Many housewives will do everything to keep their families clean, but this is an intense fight every day.

However, sometimes, various factors intertwine to cause serious drought and broad economic impact. One of the droughts was a notorious sandstorm in the midwestern part of the 1930s. The other is the dust bowl competitor, the worst drought in American history, and the drought in North America from 2012 to 2015. Since the beginning of the 21st century, drought conditions are spreading in 48 adjacent states. It started in the southeastern and lasted for most of the subsequent decade; at different times it spread to the northeast, the midwest, the Rocky Mountains, parts of Canada, the Midwest, the Southwest, and the Northeast .

The climate event in the American history was a drought of "sandstorm" that destroyed the state in the middle of America, Highplains. In the 1930s, the dust bowl nearly exhausted the already depressed US economy, resulting in losses of several million dollars. The plains of the United States are semi-arid areas or grasslands. The next most desert climate has a semi-arid climate less than 20 inches (510 mm) per year, exposing the drought to serious weather risks. More importantly, the plains are arranged. Strong wind then produces a sandstorm

Have you heard about the sand bowl? Between 1933 and 1940, heavy droughts in the Great Plains of the United States caused a massive dust storm, leaving thick dust in the clouds. This cloud of dust was called "black snowstorm." Under extremely dry conditions, the top layer of the land is exposed to the wind. As everyone knows, the real cause of the dustproof bowl is that it does not adopt a serious drought and wind-resistant crop cultivation method.
