Are you a farmer? Thats a pretty fucked up thing to say if your not. Im already operating at a 33% higher capacity than my county recommends and will get to 1au/acre in 2 or 3 more years. I've only been ranching for 3 years... So at that rate im producing ~600cals for a person per acre per year with sheep or 845cal per acre per year with beef, meaning it takes around 3-4acres to feed a person on grass fed grass finished meat.

600 calories per acre per year seems low. Are you sure you’re not producing more? You said “per person” maybe I’m not getting what that means. Or what am I missing?

The math is basically i 1au/acre per year. Thats 5 lambs (250k cals) or half a cow (308k cals) since it takes 24 months to raise a cow to butcher.

Divide that by 365.

Gotcha so it’s 600 calories *per day* per acre for a person. That’s what I needed. Ty
