[QUOTE="Howdyjabo, post: 30363, member: 391"] Take into account I'm from the East coast and what I would do with overgrown pastureland--- wouldn't necessarily fit your environment............. Would the fences hold goats? With the cross fencing and rotation possibilities you have the perfect setup to manage goats(without going bankrupt worming)- and in turn they can help get the pastures back in shape. What they can't reach you can push over for them. And if money is an issue keeping you from getting an adequate stocking rate of cattle and goats---I would find a neighbor to rent to- and have them stock it heavily enough short term to get it under control- then back off to a maintainace level. I would also make bushhogging and fertilizing part and parcel of the deal. With the fences and water in place - around here I would get more for a grazing contract than I would for hay. Short term lease Gives you the time and money to invest in your own stock. And has the place ready when you are. Karen [/QUOTE]
