B. They can no longer survive on their dry farmlands.

Explanation:

The Grapes of Vibe by John Steinbeck tells a story about the severity of the Great Depression and the sufferings of migrant farm workers.

The story is centered on the Joad family and their migrations to look for work and how poorly they were treated. They eventually decide to leave when the pay could not even buy them dinner.
