The correct answers for the causes of the Dust Bowl are:

  • Drought
  • Overfarming

The Dust Bowl was primarily caused by a combination of severe drought conditions and poor agricultural practices, including overfarming, which led to the depletion of soil nutrients and erosion. The other options listed (overproduction of manufactured goods and stock market speculation) were not direct causes of the Dust Bowl.
