Best Answer

Ranchers raise a wide variety of livestock depending on their ranch. A rancher would mostly raise cattle for beef as selling beef is profitable in the fast food industry.

What do ranchers do on their ranches?

Ranchers are people who raise livestock like horses and cattle for a living. They are essentially "grass farmers" because they use these livestock to harvest the fodder, forages, grasslands (tame or native) in such a way that helps "produce" the livestock they wish to sell for income purposes. Ranchers may also be called "farmers" if they also maintain a grain operation along with the livestock they raise.

No. Farming is, by definition, an ambiguous term for the raising of livestock (which includes any animal from chickens to pigs, or cattle, bison, horses, etc.) and/or growing crops. Cattle ranchers are people that raise cattle on an extensive operation and make it a living and a business from doing so.
