Cattle farming was too expensive, so many farmers moved out to the Plains for crop farming. There they had trouble with high interest in the banks, unfair railroad fees, and overproduction from other farmers.
The major problem faced by the farmer after the civil war is the increase in the agricultural prices. This resulted to the creation of the Farmer's Alliance to negotiate for lower amount. The second problem is the expensive use of trains for transporting goods that led to advocates to make railroads under public ownership. Another one is the end of slavery wherein the rate of hiring slaves becomes extremely high.

Reduced dependence on nonrenewable resources
Our dependence on fossil fuels has actually increased dramatically as more and more people own vehicles. Vehicles are becoming more efficient, but with so many on the road at once, we're burning through our nonrenewable resources fast. It may not happen on our lifetimes, but we'll run out eventually and unless we find a better source of energy by then, we'll be in a bad situation.
