3/4's to 1 1/4 acres per horse.
It will take 2-4 acres of pasture to keep a cow. It really depends on the quality of pasture and availability. If the pasture is rotated well, and if you have ample rain, it will be at about 2 acres. Dryer weather will challenge you in your rotation. Don't let the grass get too short, otherwise the cows will begin to pull at the base of the plant and cause permanent harm.
4 acres is 174,240 square feet.
You will need more acres per horse in the southern part of Alberta than the north. Average is around 4 acres per horse, and up to 1.5 acre per horse in the northern parts. Though that's on excellent quality pasture: stocking rates may be a bit less on less-quality pasture. Not to mention that horses need room to run, unlike cattle, so you will need to add on a couple extra acres in addition to the amount that they will graze.
