What challenges did farmers face on the great plains?

There were many challenges faced by the farmers on the Great Plains. One of the problems was the land. The soil was much more difficult to farm in the Great Plains. They also faced climatic issues like droughts. The winters were very cold and snowy while summers were incredibly hot and humid. These factors made farming very difficult. The farmers were also attacked by Native Americans as they were concerned with the white expansion and took the farmers as a threat to them and their way of life.
