The Spanish influence ranching in Texas as "Spanish farmers provided grain to feed the cattle".

Option:  A

Explanation:

Livestock was introduced to Texas in most early incursions, or attempts at colonization. The animals involved were horses, cattle (ganado mayor), mules and burros, and also sheep, goats and pigs (ganado minor). The Franciscans were the province's principal stock spreaders during the eighteenth century; they diligently managed their seed stock, and their herds grew rapidly.

Around projects from San Antonio de Bexar to La Bahia in the San Antonio River Valley their ranching activity was focused. Each mission had a ranch certain distance from the base and the missions obtained land grants from the King of Spain to carry out their work.
