Cowboys would move herds of cattle across vast expanses of land, Homesteaders owned parcels of land and were very protective of it, and nearly all did not have fences. This meant that the cowboys herds would end up on homesteaders land from time to time, the two would sometimes argue or become violent about grazing rights for the cattle.

Where did homesteaders and cowboys come into conflict in the 1890s?

Homesteaders and cowboys came into conflict in the 1890s primarily in the Great Plains and cattle country as the expansion of farming encroached on traditional grazing lands. The rise of barbed wire fencing by homesteaders restricted cattle movement, leading to disputes over land use and access to water sources. These tensions were exacerbated by economic pressures, such as drought and falling cattle prices, which intensified competition for the available resources. The conflicts symbolized the broader struggle between agricultural expansion and the ranching lifestyle during westward expansion.
