Imagine a pasture in a small town with grazing sheep owned by several farmers. Every farmer profits by increasing the number of

sheep he has on the pasture. However, the pasture can hold only so many sheep before it runs out of grass for the sheep to eat. If that happens, the sheep would starve. If the sheep starve, it would hurt the town's economy. What government action could support the town's economy and ensure that there are not too many sheep on the pasture?
Tax the grain used to feed the sheep
Tax the use of the common pasture
Ban farmers from putting sheep in the pasture
Set a minimum price for wool

If your thinking logically then you would want to tax the use of the common pasture. Doing that would limit the amount of sheep in the pasture itself. Because the number of sheep go down then the sheep still there will have an abundance of food. It can't be number 3 and I don't think its 1 so using my logic it would be 2. Hope this helped!

Technological developments continued to improve farming throughout the 1880’s and 1890’s.  New machinery increased the amount of land ton the Great Plains that could be farmed on, as it made it easier to access water and grow crops.  For example, wind pumps had improved significantly by the 1880’s. Metal wind pumps had been developed that were able to reach water hundreds of metres underground, and they only needed oiling once a year. Other new machinery made ploughing the land and growing crops easier. For example, seed drills were developed which were able to automatically plant seeds at the correct depth.

 

These new machines made faming more efficient and boosted the economy as farmers began to purchase machines. By the 1890’s the Great Plains had become a productive and fertile area of farming. Most homesteaders prospered.
