ranches
A ranch is a large area of land dedicated to the breeding and raising of livestock such as cattle, sheep, or other farm animals. It typically involves managing pastures for grazing, ensuring proper health and nutrition, and often includes facilities like barns and fences. Ranches can vary greatly in sizeāfrom small holdings to expansive lands covering thousands of acres. They are essential for producing meat, wool, and other animal products, and often operate with a focus on sustainable land and livestock management to ensure long-term productivity and environmental health.
