I was lookin into buying about 150 acres to raise beef cattle, grow corn, hay, and soy. Corn and hay to feed the cattle, and soy to rotate feilds and sell. I can build barns, silos, and fence line to keep initial investment cheap. Also I found a way to make irrigation for the crop and cattle very easy and cheap. I would think that equipment and my initial herd would be the most costly investment. I'm sure I've left out alot of factors for initail investments. How many heads could I support on 150 acres including the crop? And is it possible to feed my cattle with just hay and corn grown on my own farm without buying elswhere? What kind of investment am I looking at excluding the price of land? And what kind of return am I looking at?
