temperate grassland known as bread basket
Answers
Hey MATE!
The grassland was where the buffalo roamed. Incredible, huge quantities of buffalo. American settlers cleared out all of the buffalo.
The settlers moved into the grassland and started planting wheat crops. Incredible, huge quantities of wheat crops where the grassland had been. American settlers cleared out all the grassland.
Eventually, they discovered the grass was what had been holding down the dirt. Without the grass, the dirt dried up, the wheat stopped growing, and the Great American Dustbowl began. Check out The Worst Hard Time for further reading. Then, to really make your bones turn to jelly, curl up with The Grapes of Wrath.
The dustbowl coincided with the stock market crash. The death of the economy and the death of the farmer produced the Great Depression.
The grassland was called the breadbasket of the world because of propaganda.
Hope it helps
