The carrying capacity given in real estate ads or soil survey tables
would no doubt be the maximum that can be acheived under conditions of
proper management. Certainly this quantity has no minimum.
I would estimate my maximum carrying capacity at around 1.5, or better,
once the new pasture is planted. So on 2.5 acres I can keep about 10
sheep (6 sheep = 1 steer for this purpose).
