Overgrazing and excessive plowing of the land, combined with severe drought conditions, were the main human factors that contributed to the creation of the Dust Bowl. The failure to implement sustainable agricultural practices and conservation techniques led to the degradation of the soil and the eventual dust storms that devastated the Great Plains region in the 1930s.
