Starting a Cattle Ranch of Any Size

Are you concerned about the high cost of groceries, especially organic, grass-fed beef? Are you considering raising cattle for meat? Maybe you think a cattle ranch is a little much, but what about just keeping two cows, for fresh organic milk or even as pets? Did you know you could make money with beef cattle?

★It’s not that far-fetched to consider becoming a cattle farmer!

Whatever reason brought you here, I can assure you that you’ve come to the right place. Raising cattle for your own quality beef or to make money is one of the most stimulating activities I’ve experienced.

Like most people interested in cattle raising, you may feel overwhelmed and unsure of your first moves. This book was written to alleviate your fears and calm your worries. It’ll prepare you in a clear and concise fashion for buying your initial herd, its maintenance, and eventual slaughter or sale.

★Best to start small

I started out with just three head of cattle and just a few acres. I considered it an experiment. Looking for a way to make extra money and feed my family high-quality food, I took the plunge. It took an investment of funding and a commitment of time and energy, but it was one of the most rewarding career moves I ever made!

This guide is written by someone who has more than a decade of experience raising cattle successfully. Not only that, but I started out small and gradually enlarged my herd.

★I wrote this book so that YOU can raise cattle, too!
