The article literally cites “relentless overplowing” as a primary cause. Of course that means removing the existing plants (i.e. native grasses) in the context of converting the prairies to farmland. Not really sure what additional context you are providing, or expecting the article to convey here. Cool pic though.
i missed that, but fwiw I’d prefer it specifically mention the prairie grass. “Overplowing”? What, like you’ve plowed it, then you plow it again? Then you really overplow it by plowing it a third time?
No mention of the Dust Bowl being caused by the removal of deep-rooted prairie grasses for cattle ranching, etc.

Could be better constructed, imo.
