cattle country
Where herds graze
Cattle country is a region where cattle ranching predominates—typically vast, open rangeland suited to grazing.
The term evokes the American West, with its sprawling ranches and cowboy culture: We drove through cattle country for hours without seeing a town.
It can describe any area where beef production shapes the landscape and local economy.
