C.The Great Migration westward during the war led to too many people growing too many crops too quickly

Explanation:

The WW I contributed to the development of the Dust Bowl because their was high rate of movement of farmers westward of the Great plain for farming which expose the land without protective measures taking ahead.

During this period, government policies on land, the regional weather change, brings about massive movement towards the plain there by making in experience farmers to plant and massively based on demand for wheat which in return  expose the floor surface to dust bowl based on lands that have been plowed and exposed . The dust bowl came and started to blow away the already exposed land which do not have deep rooted grass again to grasp onto the soil and brought about eroded soil.

NOTE: The Dust Bowl is the period of massive dust storms that destroy the ecosystem and resulted into drought in the 1930's.
