Because that is the only type of agriculture that can exist in that area. The ground is too rocky and coarse to till the earth and put in crops, plus the earth is too poor to get any bumper crops anyway. But native and tame grasses that are ten times more hardier than the annual crop plants found in the Midwest are able to grow well there, and so these grasses thrive on being grazed by herds of herbivorous grazers like cattle and sheep.
Cattle ranching
Ranching and cattle are dominant in regions with vast open spaces suitable for grazing, such as parts of the United States (like Texas and Wyoming), Canada, Australia, and parts of South America (such as Brazil and Argentina). These regions typically have a tradition of livestock production and ranching as an important part of the economy.
Cattle ranching is important to Arizona's economy because many places in Arizona are not fit for farming. Arizona is a desert state in the southwestern United States. In most areas there are probably more cattle than people.
The region known for cattle ranching and oil production is the American Southwest, particularly states like Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. These states have vast stretches of land suitable for grazing cattle as well as significant reserves of oil.

takes place largely in the western united states on public and private grazing lands.
huge areas of open land
The two most renowned states where cattle ranching is found are Jalisco (17.5% of total production) and Michoacan (9%). These states are on western Mexico, facing the Pacific Ocean.
Mining and cattle ranching helped prepare western territories for statehood because these were two industries that brought people to the west. The people who moved west wanted to join the United States because they wanted to see law enforcement intervention.
Main resources that this region supplies are, natural gases, oil, copper, clay, tale, and ranching sheep and cattle. This region also is home to the McDonald observatory. Many of these resources are mined from mines in the Mountains. This region although it is not that big, has many important resources that Texas, and United States all need.

there was cattle, but not a whole lot elbow room... it wasnt till after the war of 1812 that Americans could travel west
The open range was primarily in the Western United States, particularly states like Texas, Wyoming, and Montana. These areas were vast stretches of unfenced land where cattle could roam freely, making them ideal for cattle ranching and grazing.
