The true statements regarding agricultural migrant workers from Dust Bowl states during the Great Depression are:

  • They moved from farm to farm in search of work.

  • They picked crops at starvation wages.

The other statements are not accurate in the context of the experiences of agricultural migrant workers during that time. While some may have been reluctant to take government assistance, it wasn't a universal refusal, and they did not have the most success in Oklahoma as many were leaving the state due to the harsh conditions.
