Answer;

C. Poor farming techniques that killed the soil were combined with drought.

Step-by-step explanation;

-The Dust Bowl was caused by several economic and agricultural factors, including federal land policies, changes in regional weather, farm economics and other cultural factors.

-After the Civil War, a series of federal land acts coaxed pioneers westward by incentivizing farming in the Great Plains.
