Yes, they do. BUT NOT without your permission. My daughter was tube feed until she reached her target weight. She ate normal size meal during the day, and was given additional nourishment while she slept via the tube. It is a whole lot better than having her eat 3600 calories a day to gain weight. The additional benefit is that the patient gets use to eating normal size meals throughout treatment.

If you are like most small business owners, you want to build business credit for your company and get small business loans when you need them. To build business credit means less risk for you as the owner of the business. There is effort involved when you decide to build business credit. Start taking the steps to build business credit from the get-go. This way, you won't find yourself without a strong business credit profile even if your business is thriving.

There is a lot of hype regarding the need to build business credit that says personal credit does not matter. It's true that when you build business credit, you separate your business credit from your personal credit, but it does help to have strong personal credit as well. The more solid you are on your feet with personal credit, the more effective you will be when you build business credit. Credit protection laws vary between personal and business credit, so it's important to understand the differences when you begin to build business credit. A good rule of thumb to follow is simply this - repair your personal credit along with the efforts you are making to build business credit. As you begin to build business credit, set up your business structure properly with the state and get all the necessary licensing. When you build business credit you will need a business phone listed in the telephone directory under the business name.

Don't be discouraged by the best business credit score being reserved for the "big guys" when you build business credit. Maintain your focus and you will build business credit that has enough impact to catch the interest of private commercial lenders. Beware of loan fraud when you build business credit - a legitimate underwriter will not charge you a fee upfront to connect you with a business loan lender. There may be fees for other services involved when you build business credit, but not for that. Good business credit cannot be "bought."

6,969,600 square feet One section is one square mile, which is 640 acres One fourth of 640 acres is 160 acres. Each acre is 43,560 square feet Therefore, one quarter of a section is 640/4 x 43,560 = 6,969,600 square feet. Alternatively, you can see that a square mile cut into quarters would be 4 half-mile by half-mile squares. A mile is 5,280 feet, so each square would be (1/2 x 5,280)2 = 6,969,600 square feet

Depends on the year like if it was dry it might not be good. But if there was no sickness or and the grass was good it might be a good income. Tennessee has the most cattle farms of any state, but is about ninth in cattle numbers. The average net income of a cattle farm in Tennessee is negative. There are a lot of part-time cow-calf operations in Tennessee.

First cattle were brought into the Americas in the late 1400's by the Spanish. In the 1600's, European settlers brought more cattle to the New World. But in all honesty, ranchers have been raising cattle since the late 1400's, which is around 500 years. So, ranchers have been raising cattle in the USA for around 500 years.

Please be more specific. What do you mean by this question, are you referring to how long a bale of hay will last when fed to livestock? How many livestock are you asking about? What type or class? What size is the bale, what type, what weight? What does it comprise of (i.e., grass only, legume only, or legume-grass)? All of these questions need to be answered before this question can actually be answered.

Every ranch had a brand registered that was unique to that ranch. This brand, which comprised a combination of letters, numbers and symbols in two digits or less, was burned onto cattles' hides above the flank, ribs or over the hips, and proved to be a very useful ID for cowboys to see which cattle belonged to which ranch come roundup time.

Barbed wire fences. Farmers used barbed wire to keep animals out, but this made it more difficult for the cowboys to free-range graze their cattle. The ranchers wanted more space to graze their cattle, yet the farmers wanted property lines so no animals could mar their fields and destroy their crops.

Sheep tend to eat the grass much closer to the ground than cattle do. As a result it takes the grazing pasture longer to recover. In the old days cattlemen thought the ground would never recover so they ran sheepherders off their grazing land.

The size of a ranch anywhere is dependent on what is being raised on that ranch. Cattle ranches are larger than say a place where chickens are raised. USDA has statistics on the average size of agricultural operations. Aa ranch needs space and water to be profitable, and I would bet that most small ranches are NOT profitable. That said, I think it would take more than 2000 acres to become profitable with cattle. In considering rates, the soils, climate, and water features would dictate carrying capacity. Carrying capacity in basic terminology is number of head of livestock (by species) that can be properly maintained without diminishing the health of the herd or the health of the land. That's my short answer. It is much more complicated than this, and hopefully you can see that the answer to your question is based on many variables. There are many ranches in Texas that are greater thn 50,000 acres, some as large as 250,000 acres, and a handful larger than that. A common sized ranch would be around 500 acres.
