Pasture can be anything that an animal can walk on and have something to browse on there. Don't be mistaken that it is just a big lawn and needs mown monthly, only mow if there are weeds, they have a tendency to spread and push out the edible grasses.

With just the weekend to use, tractor repair can eat up the time, especially when fence needs fixed. John in Nebraska
