Commercial livestock farming on 50–100 hectares offers farmers the opportunity to generate significant income while maintaining manageable herd sizes. This scale of farming allows for efficient rotational grazing, pasture management, and proper disease control. Cattle, sheep, and goats are the most common livestock choices, each providing unique benefits and market opportunities. Farmers can diversify income streams by producing meat, milk, hides, and other animal products, reducing dependence on a single commodity.
