- Definition
- A tract of land, including buildings and structures, whose primary use is the grazing of livestock on large, mostly unimproved, lands that are otherwise unsuitable for farming (for example: arid).
- Description
- The natural vegetation of the grazing area is usually dominated by native grasses, grass-like plants, forbs, and shrubs, but may include native or adapted introduced species that are managed like native vegetation. Ranches may be of nearly any size and if the ranch includes arable or irrigated land, the ranch may also engage in raising crops, especially hay and feed grains.
