Most cattle ranching occurs in regions where crops are impossible to be grown. Here in Canada, these places include in the mountains and foothills and dry prairie. Down in the states cattle are raised on big ranches in the desert areas stretching from Texas to California, and in the mountain/foothill ranges covering the Appalachians in the east and the Rocky Mountians in the west. All that land in between is primarily used for cropland, particularly in the flat plains.

What was the main reason that ranchers began to rise cattle for products other than beef?

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. Of course you may be referring to those ranchers who raise cattle to sell their cattle to other ranchers who need those type of cattle for their operations. Seedstock or purebred cattlemen still contribute to the beef industry, though, when they cull out cows, bulls, heifers and steered young bulls because they do not fit or are inferior to the type of stock they need to raise to sell to other seedstock producers or commercial producers.
