Survey reveals cattle production benchmarks in south Florida ranches, highlighting management practices.
The UF/IFAS South Florida Beef Forage Program (SFBFP) in conjunction with the UF/IFAS Program Evaluation and Organizational Development unit created a survey in 1982 to evaluate ranch management practices and determine benchmarks in cattle production and pasture management. The survey is updated and distributed every five years to ranchers in 17 south Florida counties: Charlotte, Citrus, Collier, DeSoto, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Martin, Okeechobee, Pasco, Polk, St. Lucie, and Sarasota. This data serves Florida ranchers, their allied industries, and governmental and nongovernmental agencies making or advocating for policy that affects ranchers. Written by Hannah Baker, Laura Bennett, Lauren Butler, Sonja Crawford, Lindsey Crum, Christa Kirby, Colleen Larson, Philipe Moriel, Kalan Royal, Brent Sellers, Maria Silveira, Bridget Stice, and João Vendramini, and published by the UF/IFAS Department of Agronomy, August 2025.
