[QUOTE="thunder downunder, post: 733996, member: 13803"] Chuckie It depends where you are, grasses can vary from one area to the next. Alot of graziers have perennial grasses and fescues, like phalarus and cocksfoot, and a mix of native grasses. Some farmers improve the pastures with lucerne and clover, others just fertilise. Carrying capacity can range from one cow per acre to one cow per 250 acres. Location and seasonal conditions make a great difference. The main breeds would be Angus, Shorthorn and Hereford and their crosses for the most part, with alot of Brahman, Droughtmaster and Santa Gertrudis up north. Again location plays a great role. European breeds have become increasingly more popular in recent years as terminal sires, ie Charolais, Simmental, Limousin, etc. [/QUOTE]
