Which was an advantage of farming on the Great Plains in the late 1800s? A. Native Americans could be hired as cheap farm labor. B. There was plenty of inexpensive land available for homesteaders. C. Plenty of rainfall made it easy to grow a variety of crops. D. The region was close to large cities, markets, and ports on the East Coast.
C and D is obviously wrong.
The answer is B
thank you
On my old text book it said "For $10, any citizen could have 160 acres of public land. "
the answer is C because, barley any rain fell in the plains. Native Americans did not like the farmers ( so why would they work for them?) The great planes were in the middle of no ware so how could their be cities and markets?
