The major problem would be water.

Apart from coastal plains, the bulk of farmland productive enough to support cattle is either irrigated, or runs very low numbers of stock when compared to New Zealand.

Pasture species would have been a problem early on, but most pasture areas would have seen their native species wiped out and overplanted with imported pasture species.

Historically, cattle were driven over great distances, similar to the cattle drives in the American West. Road transport has supplanted the need for droving.
