Montana’s economy is bolstered by agriculture. Annually, agriculture contributes more than 2.4 billion dollars to the state. Of that colossal number, livestock contributes almost half. The wide-open plains and grazing land of Montana supports 2.6 million beef cattle and 18,000 dairy cows. To put that into perspective, that is ultimately 3 head of cattle for each human in the state! It’s no wonder that Montana is ranked 6th for the total number of beef cattle and is considered the world’s hub for seedstock, registered cattle used for breeding. In addition to beef and milk production, cattle also provide important by-products such as leather, soap and cosmetics. The cow-calf operation is popular among ranchers where a herd of cattle is kept for breeding and producing calves. Because of a cow’s digestive system encompassing four stomachs, they can digest plant material and thus thrive on grasses and other vegetation.
