cattle husbandry on Free Range or Open Range


Explanation:
Free Range cattle husbandry as opposed to Feedlot or Stockyard which would be Pecuária Intensivo in Portuguese.

While this conjures images of no fences from a century ago, in Brazil today it denotes very large farms with hundreds of acres per area and cattle may not be seen for days or weeks. While in the Western US the term is similar or can be used for smaller enclosures, and cattle may be kept in enclosures at night

Cattle Ranging is a term as a verb, Pecuária intensivo is the noun of Open Range Cattle Husbandy

Example sentence(s):
  • In ranching, free-range livestock are permitted to roam without being fenced in, as opposed to fenced-in pastures. In many of the agriculture-based economies, free-range livestock are quite common.
