[QUOTE="NECowboy, post: 1349278, member: 25360"] Wish our stocking rate was like that here (it's more like 7 acres/au). I'm going to try to improve on that by doing rotational grazing, cross fencing etc, stock tanks in each sub pasture and hoping then that way for closer to like 4 acres/au. Pasture here is like $1600/acre which for the stocking capacity is kind of high. We have a lot of farmers/ranchers (most people here do both) that made $7-8/bushel on corn (though it's now 2.96 so rough for many). Farming/ranching pretty much our ONLY industry so makes it quite competitive on farm ground. I guess I'll try not to look at what we paid vs stocking rate or would just feel depressed. Land has great view, some good hunting areas, and we want to build a house on it so guess some value in that for us. [/QUOTE]
