The Florida Raised Daily
Food For Thought
What if we told you that on the list of endangered species in Florida, that cattle ranchers may become high on that list? As you drive through all the beautiful counties in our states and through historic cattle production areas, you see vast acres (sometimes numbering in the tens of thousands) that make it almost impossible to fathom that one day, those ranches we rely on may be gone.
Florida Ranchers are making the switch from feedlot production to free roaming, traditional and healthy grass-fed cattle ranching. But have you ever wondered what life on a Florida cattle ranch is really like? It’s a hard job, but Florida ranchers are often multigenerational, meaning the culture and practice of farming goes back two or up to six generations.
