The U.S. government offered incentives for farmers to settle in California, particularly through programs like the Homestead Act of 1862, which provided land grants to individuals willing to cultivate the land. Additionally, state and local governments, along with private companies, promoted settlement by providing financial assistance, resources, and access to irrigation projects. These incentives were part of broader efforts to encourage agricultural development in the region during the 19th century.
