[QUOTE="Txwalt, post: 711967, member: 5970"] I don't think this is the case in Central, South and West Texas. Brahman influenced cattle are later maturing. They just grow slower. The stocking rates here are 20 to 25 acres a cow/calf pair. That means they are mostly eating native unfertilized grass. You simply can't turn a profit weeding and fertilizing 20 acres for one cow. Our cows have to work a little harder when they forage. The up side is we only have to hay them 2 or 3 months a year if there is no drought. This year I don't even want to think about how much hay we put out. Walt [/QUOTE]
