I saw in a Western Horseman magazine or something not to long ago that showcased a large Cattle Ranch in Mexico. Does anyone know of any? I guess when I think of Mexico cattle ranches you think of corriente cattle and sombreros, but it was real modern with a stocker program and cow/calf.

companies come over and buy the lot . or they are sold local. As far as them goin into mexico they will only go into foreign countries after they are slaughterd (unless they head south honduras el salvador ) . Brahmans most of them . I only have about 35 purebred brahmans . they rest are just mixed . Adn eventually when I have enough females I want to get some manso blood into them but for now I cannot afford this . Guatemalan Labor is cheap , Also I Have relatives who live down there . My godfather got me into this . He has been ranching for 12 years now .
