Cattle Station
A cattle station is a large farm or ranch primarily focused on raising and breeding cattle for beef production. These stations are often found in rural areas, particularly in countries like Australia and the United States, where vast open spaces are available for grazing. Cattle stations can vary in size, with some covering thousands of acres, and they typically include facilities for housing cattle, equipment, and sometimes staff.
Cattle stations play a significant role in the agricultural economy, providing meat for local and international markets. They often employ various practices for animal husbandry, including breeding, feeding, and health management. In addition to cattle, some stations may also raise other livestock or grow crops, contributing to the overall productivity of the land.
