The development of the cattle industry is when new breeds are imported into a country, ranchers and farmers expand their herds, and new breeds are created. More people demand beef and dairy products close to home, and these ranchers, farmers, dairy farmers (as well as the feedlot/finishers and meat packers) have to grow to meet these demands. Individual herd sizes increased as the population grew, as what happened in the 19th century.
