“Lott, [Texas] . . . came into existence with the coming of the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railroad [in 1892] . . . Crude as were the first days of the town, it is natural that being a railroad town this brought people from the surrounding communities because of the advantages the railroad had to offer in those days. In they came from the communities which the railroad had passed by.”

The group of nomadic indigenous people that lived on Texas plains and planted crops the some extent are the Lipan Apache I know I got the question incorrect correct before
To determine which group of nomadic Indigenous people living on the Texas plains planted crops to some extent, we can start by researching each of the listed options. Let's take a closer look at each group:
1. The Wichita: The Wichita people were a native tribe who once resided in present-day Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. They were known for their agriculture practices and were sedentary farmers rather than nomadic. They cultivated several crops, including maize, beans, and squash.
2. The Jumano: The Jumano were a group of Native American tribes who inhabited the present-day southwestern United States and parts of northern Mexico. While they were primarily nomadic, relying on hunting and gathering, they also engaged in limited farming activities. They might have planted certain crops near their seasonal settlements.
3. The Lipan Apache: The Lipan Apache were a nomadic group of Native Americans who inhabited the Southern Plains, including parts of Texas. They were primarily hunters and gatherers and did not have extensive agricultural practices. It is unlikely that they planted crops to a significant extent.
4. The Caddo: The Caddo people were an agricultural tribe who lived in the present-day southeastern United States, including parts of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. They were known for their agricultural practices and grew crops such as maize, beans, and squash.
Based on this information, the Wichita and the Caddo are the two groups on the list that practiced agriculture to some extent. However, since the question asks specifically about the nomadic Indigenous people living on the Texas plains, the more accurate answer would be the Jumano. Although they were primarily nomadic, they did engage in limited farming activities.
