The Dust Bowl. That is why they were moving and following the crops.

It is accurate that the book takes place during the Dust Bowl. However, the Joad family moves because of the industrialization of farming and the "tractors." Additionally, the story has to take place in or after 1936 because there is a reference to the Lincoln Zepher, which was introduced that year.
