The lines in the poem are most likely describing the struggle of cowboys not being able to access enough grass and water for their cows after ranchers sectioned it off with barbed wire. This was a common issue during the western frontier era, where open range land was being fenced off by ranchers, restricting the movement of cowboys and their cattle. The lines "Don't fence me in" and "Let me ride through the wide-open country that I love" express the frustration and desire for freedom and open spaces that cowboys felt during this time. Therefore, the correct response is: "Cowboys could not access enough grass and water for their cows after ranchers sectioned it off with barbed wire."
