Hey there I have recently started pondering buying land and cattle in Oklahoma as it seems my goals may not be possible with land prices here. I grew up helping farmers in small ranches but I don’t want to pick up and move my family with my limited knowledge is there any program or education I could get here that would better prepare me for this venture. I’m looking at like 30 acres in Oklahoma and hoping to buy like maybe ten cows . It’s all in the very beginning stages .. like just a dream but I’m wondering if you have any input
