Well, in today's world, that's the only way to really make a profit off of raising cattle. A lot of dairy and most feedlot operations are large-scale cattle operations. But that's not to say it's usually done, because it isn't, as far as beef cow-calf is concerned. More and more farm families have beef cattle herds that average around 50 to 200 cows, because that's all they can manage without going into debt or getting too over-worked.
And then the term "large-scale" is a bit ambiguous because we don't know if you mean large scale in terms of intensive operations like those cattle raised in CAFO's (Confined Animal Feeding Operations), or in terms of land area of extensive operations like a ranch (American) or station (Australian).
