It was largely caused by an increase in farming efficiency due to technology. Advancements led to a surplus of labor, and the displaced workers saw the United States as a place that offered them new opportunities. Many immigrants faced a double culture shock, not only assimilating into an entirely new country but in many cases switching from agrarian jobs to urban work at the same time.

Answer:

competition in the workplace

Explanation:

With the immigrants coming and the rural areas needing less and less workers thanks to the technological advances of the time, the only thing that happened was that there was too many people willing to work and needing a job, so the wages became lower because there was too much offer of workers and only so many jobs, that made the anti-immifrant sentimient to increase because there were already too many workers and people in the US and were unemployed and adding more and more people to that offer wasn´t convenient for the ones that were already here.
