[QUOTE="gman4691, post: 1796771, member: 43107"] There were some old homesteads there once upon a time as evidenced by some hand-dug wells (that have long since been filled in) and narcissus & jonquils planted here and there. But when my grandfather bought it, he bought it all in one piece and it has been like that ever since. As for advice, I was always just a labor hand - Dad did all of the planning and such - I just did what he told me to do - at least where the cows are concerned. At the same time, I'm no babe in the woods and I have a neighbor who is a pretty bonafide cattleman I can go to for consultation on the cows & now there's this forum. But we've never done any of the AI or pure-breed stuff. Still like to read about it in here though - interesting stuff. As for the hay pastures, I nailed that down pretty good last year - do know a little bit about soil nutrients - at least in this area. I also know a bit about chainsaw work either for taking out a tree or cutting one off of a fence (that can get dicey at times). And I have more experience than I like to think about cutting brush and stretching barbed wire - ha! [/QUOTE]
