1. what was the soil conservation act meant to do?drastically reduce farming on the plainsend farming on the plainsstop flooding and soil erosionexpand irrigation and crop rotation

Explanation:

The Soil Conservation Act of 1935 was established to address severe soil erosion (exacerbated by the Dust Bowl) and related issues like flooding by promoting soil conservation practices. The other options are incorrect: it did not seek to reduce or end farming on the Plains, nor was its main goal expanding irrigation and crop rotation (though crop rotation was a recommended practice, not the core purpose).

Answer:

stop flooding and soil erosion
