I used to farm 1/2 section and had 50 head of beef and 4 dairy cows, i also raised red wattle pigs i sold in sides.

Then the pork took a dive and i could not even give them away.
Well 75 beef and 1/2 section wasn't enough to make ends meet so i took a jump of the bridge and sold the 1/2 and bought an badly neglected 11 quarter ranch,all of it on borrowed money cause i lost money on the old place.
I ran a couple hundred cows(1o0 on shares) on that place for 3 or 4 years and then a drought hit,.no grass, no hay.
Every cow hit the road.
It is not the end of the story but you get the drift i think :wink:
