@MrRedRooster I always wondered why farmers are any good except for standard food like corn. They burn forests which does bad for the land is one reason.

"This place" is not to be a desert, it used to be prairie but the farmers planted unsuitable field crops on that ground. The long rooting grasses kept the fertile ground in place even in the dry seasons and after they were gone giant sand storms in the 1920's devastated the land.
