    how many grazing acres do you have and how many and size paddocks do you have? Last question.. what is the max amount of cattle can you run on the land you have?

      Hi Jason, we have approximately 900 grazable acres with several different sized paddocks. We aren't sure exactly how to quantify the "max" yet. We are more concerned with maxing out our soil quality than head of cattle, and are still in the process of finding the optimal ways to do that.

I understand this is a ecosystem by ecosystem basis and nothing exact can be figured in as everything in nature likes to adapt and change and so must we with it.

    I prefer the word recovery over the word rest, rest is damaging so much land in the world right now.
