Good

It's a great place to start, but if you seriously want to raise *any* of the animals included, you will probably want to buy an audible specific to that animal.

nicely done

This audible covers a lot and does it reasonably well give the constraints of a small audible. Some subjects are treated rather sketchily, but overall there is a lot of useful information in here, particularly for those new to farming/Smallholding

Well worth the time to learn!

Ideal audiobook for getting a better idea on how to better your understanding with cattle for the amateur to beginner plans on calving very helpful and explanation on the selection of breeding well worth following.
The downside is that you have to be informed the science is about cattle farming in America so if you're in the USA I’d avoid trying the remedies and always call the vet, absolutely the author does say to get set up with a great vet for your cattle.

Very good book

We have a cow calf operation for over 30 years in Florida. Cameron Bend Angus Ranch. This book should be a must read for anyone who wants or owns cows.

absolutely amazing

Bought this audible as a non-farmer, found it amazing. You will never look at food in the same way, makes you appreciate the natural world and humanely raised beef.
