The correct answer is letter C.

Explanation: All the fight between the Farmers and the Cowboys it was because the cowboys broke into the ranchers' property with their cattle, thus damaging the land that the farmers had, preventing them from planting, since they lived of that.

The farmers couldn't take action on what the cowboys did. Until the barbed wire was created and then the peasants could protect their land.
