The Ogallala: Preserving the Great American Desert

Long ago, the central part of the North American continent was tall grass and a treeless grassland covered with roaming buffalo. When European settlers arrived, they called the area a big desert in America. Today, this "desert" is covered with wheat field, corn field, alfalfa field and is irrigated through the central hub. My grandfather used to sell the central pivot system, but when my family drove a car to my grandparents' house in Nebraska state, we sprinkled a number of "sprinklers" in each place ?

Known as the early European and American explorer "Great American Desert", Great Plains was considered unsuitable for pioneers and agriculture due to lack of surface water. However, the extraordinary wetting period during this period will soon change all of this. (And.) As you can see, several climate change events caused the destruction of this biome and caused dust balls. At the same time, the federal government encourages the development and settlement of agriculture in this area, which has made a false impression on the way people live. During this extraordinarily humid period, the settlers and the government mistakenly believed that the climate of the area improved and caused the phrase "rain and subsequent cultivation". Cultivated land releases moisture into the atmosphere and creates more rainwater

The Great Plains area has been called the Great American Desert for many years. The federal government moved tribes of Native Americans to the plain as a further demonstration of the lack of appeal to white settlers in the area. Under the terms of the bill, two areas, Kansas and Nebraska will be formed. One person becomes slave and the other becomes free. While sovereignty of the people wins and slavery southern people occupy Kansas and become a slave, freedom supporters seem to settle Nebraska. We have succeeded as expected in Nebraska but we have not succeeded in Kansas.
