[QUOTE="blacksnake, post: 406615, member: 566"] My sister recently purchased some property that has approx. 20 acres of fairly decent fescue grass on it. The previous owner was using it for horses. It is fenced and has a 2-3 acre lake adjacent to it. She is thinking about getting a few head of cattle to put on it. She and her son live on the farm so they are close by. There is also approx. 30 acres more of grass/trees as well as a barn. A neighbor of hers who has cattle recommended that she buy 300-400 weight cattle in the early spring and keep them on the pasture until late fall. Does this sound like a reasonable approach and will there be enough weight gain to make any profit on this scenario. They are currently just bush hogging the area every few weeks to keep up the appearance. Thanks for you help [/QUOTE]
