Where do you live? That's the most important thing you should know before you decide the stocking rate of your area. And yes, it does depend on where you live!! Stocking rates are NOT the same for all areas of the country or of the state, so you have to compensate for that. For example, if you live in New Mexico, you will need around 25000 acres of land to run 1000 cattle. However, if you live in north-central Alberta, you should have at least 3000 acres to run 1000 cattle. Note that the amount of acreage depends on whether you are going to graze the cattle on all that land, or save around a third to half of the land for forage production like hay. In Alberta, saving land for hay is crucial because of the kind of winters that this province gets which makes grazing cattle very difficult. It's different if you are living in areas like New Mexico or Central Texas or even North Carolina. In those areas you can graze cattle for 365 days of the year. But not up north, like in Montana or Saskatchewan.
The larger land area for New Mexico is because that area is much more arid than Alberta is, and sees less rainfall, thus being unable to support a cow-calf pair on no more than around 10 to 20 acres. That is another factor to stocking rate: how much rainfall do you get per year? You can stock more heavily in areas where it is more moist, but you must stock lightly in areas where it's more arid.

Depends on how many cows they have, and the land. In Wyoming, they use more land because most of it is sagebrush. Farther down in Missouri they need less land because there is more grass. It also depends on the type of cattle and season. Pasture Rotaion is usually the best way to solve over use.

If the cows belong to someone, it is his responsibility to keep them secured on his own property. Hence, the fence. If they stay onto your land, you need to find out who owns these cows and see that he keeps them off of your land. You might check with your local court house to find out what recourse you have and how you go about handling the situation. It might involve the local sheriff's office. The fact that they might 'trespass' on your land does not give you any authority to confiscate, seize, or otherwwise assume ownership of them.
