[QUOTE="Dueyb, post: 1302915, member: 24759"] If you can line up a good tenant that will pay a good pasture rental rate then I would go that route since you are starting out. Competition for a pasture the size of yours is typically pretty good. Take a few years to focus on getting the fences tightened up, controlling brush, and improving corrals, water, etc. Since you are working full time, the projects will be more enjoyable if you aren't having to manage the cows too. After a few years, you will have a better understanding of what your goals are and your farm will be in better shape so you can then focus more on the cows. I am in a similar position as you....this is what we have done and is working well so far. [/QUOTE]
