Cattle ranchers are and always have raised (not "rise") cattle for beef, they've never began to raise cattle for products other than beef for any reason.

Why is a farmer in the great plains advised to raise cattle rather than grow rice?
Because it's much cheaper to raise cattle on the existing grassland than to buy machinery and irrigation systems to plow the land under, plant the seeds, flood the land and drain the land then harvest them. Cattle just need grass to grow and remain healthy, and require no man-made mechanical or chemical sources to live and grow, except fences to keep them in.
What things should a person know before starting to raise cattle?
There are so many things to consider before you start raising cattle. You need to have the financial ability to do so first off. These are not a cheep form of livestock to own and care for. Be sure you can provide them with plenty of space and at least an area of shade, if that only means a small grove of trees. Choose a breed that will serve for the specific purpose. Some cattle are raised for meat, while others provide milk. If you want to raise cattle for foot (meat), you'll want to focus on a breed like Angus, Beefalo, Beefmaster, Chianina, etc. However if you are interested in a milk producing cow, then try for a Holstein, Jersey, Brown Swiss, etc. Now, you need to realize, that if you want to raise cattle, you'll need both cows and bulls (or bull). A bull can be hostile or dangerous and will need a secure living area. There are many other things to take into consideration. Google. It helps.
