I have always had a dream of running a few cattle back home in Aus and i am currently looking at 2 propertys one is 100 acres in
meadows with a 33" rainfull I think will sustain 16-20 pair. the other is in the southeast, Penola. This one i do not know the rainfull but looks like some good grazing land 500 acres .I dont really have a clue how many this will sustain. After reading through this site i really need some help. first question if i own the land and the herd say 100 pair how much return could i expect?
what breed is best? are you better off breeding them and keeping them to sell or selling of at 6 months , should i have feedlot?
what do you feed in a feed lot?
anyhelp would be appreciated.
