[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1821592, member: 25884"] Our leases all say that the landowner has the right to access their property... and we have no say so over it.... UNLESS it affects the grazing conditions... like the one that just has to bush hog to make it look nice and then cuts it too short all the time... But, all the leases we have, they will tell us if they are going to do something as a courtesy, and so that we are aware of any upset to the cattle... and we do NOT put mean bulls, or aggressive bulls, or bulls that won't stay put, out on lease places.... and we have moved one out on occasion, that decides he won't stay with "his cows"... Have one guy that runs heifers in the pasture next to part of one place, so we make sure our bull (and his cows), is NOT in the pasture with the adjoining fence... we rotate our animals to another section and then when he moves his heifers, we can move our cows and bull back into that section. But, we do not lease any that the owner just goes in and does what he wants without at least some forewarning. And we make sure that any and all owners are aware that a bull is in with the cows so they can be cautious.....and to not just go wandering through the cows without being well aware of where they are and where the bull is. One place they have a fair amount of "city company" at different times and they are made well aware of the fact that you just don't go wandering around taking pictures or looking at the trees and not pay attention to where the animals are. JUST COMMON SENSE to be aware of your surroundings and the animals in that pasture... All of our leases are signed by both parties and most every year they are revised and gone over with the owners. If someone is not being cautious in and around the animals then it is not the fault of the animals. The bull [USER=38505]@Moooooo[/USER] referred to had come to the fence and allowed his head to be rubbed... then taking pictures in the pasture and "think I got too near the bull"... again, that is not the fault of the bull..... the bull snorted and it is being treated like an aggressive move... If the cattle "swarm the tractor while moving things" then they need to be penned out of the area that the tractor work is being done.
