Inheriting a dilapidated ranch in North America, he became a billionaire through animal taming and t

Veterinarians perform group examinations on cattle.

Fifty cows were selected as samples to check their weight, coat color, mental state, and blood indicators.

"Completely healthy, with no malnutrition."

Ben handed the test report to Su Chen.

"High-quality pasture has boosted the cattle's immunity, and their white blood cell count is much better than last month."

Su Chen flipped through the report.

"What about the risk of disease?"

Ben said, "It's decreased quite a bit."

"With adequate nutrition and strong immunity, the cattle can withstand minor illnesses and injuries."

Old Tom rode his four-wheeled motorcycle around the six pastoral areas.

When he came back, he had a smile on his face.

"Boss Su, the rotational grazing order has stabilized."

"Juan is skilled at herding cattle, Luis's monitoring is accurate, and Black Fang and the others work together seamlessly. We don't need to keep an eye on them every day."

Su Chen nodded.

"You've worked hard. From now on, you only need to patrol once a week. The daily patrols can be handled by Juan and Luis."

Juan and Luis are already proficient in performing rotational grazing procedures.

Juan whistles every morning.

The cattle herds were moved from the overnight grazing area to the day's grazing area.

The Black Fang wolf pack chased after them from behind.

The cattle herd moves quickly and without disorder.

Louis carried a soil testing instrument and walked around the pastoral area.

After measuring the data, fill it in on the monitoring board.

The Black Fang wolf pack became a powerful assistant to the wheeled sergeant.

In the morning, we herd the cattle out of the pen.

During the day, they guard the pastures to prevent wild animals from entering.

In the evening, we helped the cattle return to their pens.

The three new wolves, Gray Shadow, Gale, and Snowclaw, have also learned to herd cattle.

Although not as skilled as Black Fang, he can execute basic commands.

Lingfeng uses aerial surveillance to detect cattle approaching the fence boundary and calls out once.

Su Chen received the signal and instructed Juan to check and promptly drive the stray cattle back.

Dazhuang was responsible for transporting the fodder.

Su Chen harvested a batch of high-quality forage in Pasture No. 2.

After drying, bundle them up.

Dazhuang carried the bundles of hay to the hay warehouse, trip after trip.

This guy is strong.

It can carry three bales of hay at a time, which is more than a small truck can carry.

The hay warehouse has ample stock.

Su Chen took stock of it.

One hundred and fifty tons of silage and three hundred bales of hay are enough to feed the cattle for four months.

Previously, we had to buy feed from Luke every month.

We are now completely self-sufficient.

Su Chen harvested some of the high-quality forage in Pasture No. 2 to make silage.

Old Tom guides the production process.

The hay is dried for half a day after being harvested.

Once the moisture content is reduced to the appropriate level, chop the ingredients, pack them into a silage pit, compact them, and seal them for fermentation.

"The cellar can be opened in two months."

Old Tom patted the plastic sheeting over the silage pit.

"The nutrients won't be lost, and the cows will love to eat it."

Mayor George, upon learning of the ranch's successful rotational grazing, made a special trip to visit.

Su Chen led him on a tour of the six major pastoral areas.

Explaining zoning planning, rotational grazing cycles, and pasture monitoring.

George stood in Pasture No. 2.

Looking at the lush green pastures and the orderly herds of cattle, I exclaimed:

"Su Chen, your rotational grazing system is worth promoting throughout the town."

Su Chen said, "Other ranchers are welcome to come and learn."

George made his statement on the spot.

"I'll make arrangements when I get back. We'll hold a ranch management exchange meeting in Baiyu Town next month, and you'll be the lecturer."

Owners of seven small and medium-sized ranches in the surrounding area came to learn from them.

Su Chen held a small exchange meeting at the ranch.

Free explanation of the planning of six major pastoral areas, setting rotational grazing cycles, pasture monitoring methods, and cattle training techniques.

Anderson was the first to sign up, bringing a notebook to take notes one by one.

Other ranchers also asked many questions, which Su Chen answered one by one.

The ranch's reputation has been further enhanced.

Based on the results of rotational grazing, Su Chen planned a subsequent herd expansion program.

The existing pastures, under the rotational grazing system, can sustainably support 600 cattle.

He opened the system panel and glanced at the main quest:

The goal of reaching a herd size of 500 head has been achieved; the next phase target is 800 head.

To expand the herd to 600 head, we need to buy another 100 calves.

Su Chen calculated the funds.

There are still seventeen million dollars in the account.

There's more than enough to buy a hundred calves.

The automatic drinking fountains, fences, and monitoring signs are all functioning normally.

Su Chen checked them one by one.

The water trough was not leaking, the fence was not tilted, and the lettering on the monitoring sign was clear.

The forage growth data handbook is continuously updated.

The data is recorded every day.

Su Chen flipped through it.

I've already filled over thirty pages with notes.

The data trends in the six major pastoral areas are clear at a glance.

Su Chen stood on a high point of the ranch, looking down at the six major pastoral areas.

The cattle in pasture No. 2 are grazing, while those in pastures No. 1 and No. 4 are resting. The cattle in pasture No. 3 have just finished resting and are preparing to let them out.

The No. 5 grazing area is becoming increasingly green, while the No. 6 summer reserve area is quietly waiting to be deployed.

A vast expanse of lush green grassland, with herds of cattle grazing in an orderly fashion.

Straight partition fences, neatly arranged automatic drinking fountains.

Juan and Luis stood behind, smiling.

Hei Feng squatted at Su Chen's feet, Ling Feng landed on a tree in the distance, and Da Zhuang dozed off at the entrance of the mine.

Su Chen turned and walked towards the main house.

To expand the herd to 600 head, we need to buy another 100 calves.

But we need to think carefully about which variety to buy.

Angus beef is of good quality, but Wagyu beef is more expensive.

If we could get our hands on breeding cattle for Japanese Wagyu.

They were crossbred with Angus cattle to create new breeds.

The meat quality might be even better than that of the Sunset Cow.

Su Chen pushed open the study door, turned on the computer, and searched for information about Wagyu breeding cattle.

As the page loaded, a news headline caught his attention.

"Montana Livestock Auction House will be holding an Angus calf auction next Wednesday, with more than 300 calves up for auction."

Su Chen stared at the screen, his eyes lighting up.

However, we still need to wait a week; it can't be rushed, we need to plan it slowly.

The most important thing now is to continue expanding.

Because if they don't expand, the pastures won't be able to support so many cattle.

It definitely won't work if we don't expand.

Just like the Earth's environmental carrying capacity is limited.

If the number of people increases, it will inevitably lead to bad consequences sooner or later.

Once the expansion is nearly complete, it will be time for the calf auction.

......

The next day, Su Chen finished his daily patrol of the pastoral area and walked back to the main house.

He had noticed that wasteland on the west side long ago.

But I've been so busy with rotational grazing and cattle breeding that I haven't had time to deal with this.

Today, old Tom waited specifically at the entrance of the main house.

He held a yellowed old topographic map of the pasture in his hand.

"Boss Su, come and take a look."

Old Tom laid the blueprints on the hood of the pickup truck.

Su Chen walked over and looked down to examine it.

The blueprints were left behind by the previous rancher.

The edges of the paper were brittle, and there were several cracks at the creases.

Old Tom pointed to a blank area on the west side.

There were no signs there.

This stands in stark contrast to other clearly marked pastoral areas.

"How many acres is this land?" Su Chen asked.

"A little over three hundred acres, but the exact number needs to be measured," said Old Tom.

"It was completely abandoned when the previous rancher took over, and it hasn't been used for over twenty years."

Su Chen carefully examined the blueprints.

It was confirmed that this wasteland is directly connected to the existing pasture.

There was only one dilapidated fence in the middle, which had long since collapsed.

If it can be developed, the entire ranch will expand westward significantly.

"Let's go take a look," Su Chen said.
