Abstract

Soil conservation emerged as a significant environmental issue in the 1930s when several million acres of land in the Midwest were severely damaged by wind erosion. Inappropriate farming practices, combined with highly arid conditions, produced dust storms which emphatically demonstrated that abuse of land resources could not continue without serious environmental consequences.
