Not exactly a cash cow.The Bureau of Land Management has a program under which ranchers can graze their cattle cattle, name for the ruminant mammals of the genus Bos, and particularly those of the domesticated species, Bos taurus and B. indica. The term oxen, broadly used, refers also to closely related animals, such as the buffalo and the bison. on public land for a fee. The problem is that the fee is a bit low. Where ranchers have to pay an average of $13.30 to graze a cow and calf calf (kaf) sura; the fleshy back part of the leg below the knee. calf n. pl. calves on private land, they pay the government just $1.79. Unsurprisingly, this means the government loses money on the program. Obviously, the private landowners would charge less, if they could afford to do so, in order to compete with the government. Why then does the Bush administration, which is constantly proclaiming its devotion Devotion may refer to:
tr.v. per·pet·u·at·ed, per·pet·u·at·ing, per·pet·u·ates 1. To cause to continue indefinitely; make perpetual. 2. a program that undercuts the market price? If you guess it has something to do with keeping the western states red, you just might be on the right track. |
