by Colorado State University Cooperative Extension, 1999.
For many, moving from the city to a small ranch or acreage is the romance of the West coming true. A few acres may seem like unlimited space after living with neighbors at arm's length, but many times small acreage owners put too much stress on their land by demanding too much from it. These videos are an excellent resource for what is truly involved with owning small acreage, caring for horses and managing pastures. Each tape features experts from Cooperative Extension in pasture management and soil science, as well as equine clinicians, nutritionists, veterinarians, ranch managers, and small acreage and horse owners. Order here.

"These videos are very informative and will present a lot to think about before purchasing land. A lot of people look at a piece of property and think, "No problem, we'll have a lot of horses." After a month, their land looks like a dirt parking lot. By incorporating some of the ideas in these videos, a person will be able to improve the quality or operation of their home and acreage and increase the enjoyment while they own it."
