Don't have much land, not a problem, a lot is still possible. Recently Darby and I have gone through exactly what's possible on small land with pastured poultry and with pigs.  Each of these episodes showed that individually each enterprise could generate some significant cash flow on just one acre, and stacking the enterprises turns up the returns even more. What if you had more than an acre?   Or what if pigs or poultry weren't your thing?   What's possible with cattle? In this episode Darby and I will examine what the numbers of a small scale cattle enterprise look like.  We'll look at a few different scenarios ranging from 2.5 to 10 acres.  On that amount of land the returns are significant, and once infrastructure is in place, the workload isn't.   Today it's all about micro beef.
