[QUOTE="Rmc, post: 1845251, member: 39072"] So how many of your cows run on a blm or forest service allotment? I would argue that research being done by someone for their masters thesis . Using data from his own families govt leases as well as neighboring ranch's as well as others in the intermountain region to have skin in the game . But to each their own. I would trust research like that more than I would research funded by big corporations. But to each their own. But then I also tend to believe the research from the agricultural universities in the intermountain west ahead of big corporation funded research. The topic I raised is best cattle size on paddocks as you brought up. The topic I am interested in discussing is the claim that cattle on blm allotments must be long legged or not economically viable as someone has claimed. The claim isn’t some places smaller cattle can and do produce profit on blm allotments. The claim was cows must be long legged to be financially viable on blm allotments. Every single herd of cattle I have seen in my area who spend at least part of the year on allotments are smaller and lighter then those cattle who spend there entire life's in pasture. Range type cattle are completely different than those who never leave the pastures. [/QUOTE]
