The current owner has been running a cow-calf and haying operation for decades. Historically, around 250 pairs were carried when an additional summer range was available. The owner currently runs around 100 pairs on the ranch. With no fertilizers this year, the owner will harvest 1.5-2 tons per acre of hay for one cutting and pasture for the rest of the season. In years when the cows were off on the summer range, the typical production was 5 tons per acre and three cuttings per season, using fertilizers. There are numerous supporting ranch improvements for the cow and haying operations on the ranch.
