Warm pastures and year-round forage made a surprising case for cattle in the palmetto state. The Florida Live Stock Association lays out beef production, forage crops, and the promise of piney woods, prairie, and muck lands. A booster's guide to ranching in the Deep South. See why Florida bet on beef long before the tourists came.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
