Osage Nation Greatest Grazing District in Southwest
Osage Nation stands as the premier grazing district in the Southwest with vast pastures used for Texas steers and cows. Last season shipped units totaled around 10,000 head with thousands more held over winter, attracting many Oklahoma farmers eager to farm the fertile lands as in western and southern regions. The current year may see the last major Texan cattle movement into the area, with two more years likely to end Osage grazing as a Texas shipping hub, signaling a shift in regional cattle operations. Klein’s era peaked last season, and with favorable conditions this year may rival the 1902 record, though many predict a rapid decline afterward.
