The introduction of railroads played a significant role in encouraging settlement in Dakota and Montana by providing easier transportation for farmers and ranchers to move goods to market. Additionally, advancements in dryland farming techniques and the Homestead Act of 1862, which offered free land to settlers, helped attract people to the region.

How much do you make training horses for local ranchers?

It depends on what area of the U.S you are in. I am in Montana and most trainers get anywhere from 20 to 25 dollars per ride or session they work with the horse. Most trainers take the horse for 30 days. It ends up being between 600 to upwards of 800 per month for the most experienced horse trainers. But for local ranchers, I would be happy getting 600 a month.
