[QUOTE="roar9roar, post: 1200342, member: 23283"] I am looking into raising beef on my new property. I have 2.5 crossed-fenced pasture acres with barn (it was a horse property). It is established pasture mowed late this summer but has not had horses on it in at least 5 years. It is level, unirrigated, and has great sun exposure. I have never raised cows alone before but I have limited experience working on a dairy. I am sure i will have many questions but will search before I post. For those familiar with the amount of rain we get here in the willamette valley, how many head can I comfortably raise? I don't want to overtax the pasture. I am looking for a sustainable number that I can feed through the summer here without irrigating the pasture. Anyone local have a sustainable number? Thanks for your help. Additionally if you have a link to any beginners guide or how starting from scratch would appreciate it! [/QUOTE]
