The people who settled the Great Plains were commonly referred to as "homesteaders." Many of them took advantage of the Homestead Act of 1862, which granted land to individuals willing to cultivate it. These settlers included a diverse mix of immigrants and Americans seeking new opportunities in agriculture and farming. They faced significant challenges, including harsh weather conditions and limited resources, as they worked to establish their livelihoods on the plains.
Cattlemen were generally more successful on the plains due to the high demand for beef and their ability to establish profitable cattle ranching operations. The vast open spaces allowed for cattle drives and grazing, which contributed to their economic success. In contrast, homesteaders faced challenges such as harsh weather, limited resources, and difficulties in farming, which often hindered their success. While some homesteaders thrived, the cattle industry ultimately proved to be more lucrative and influential in shaping the plains economy.
