And the story continues. We drive out into the mostly flat prairie and then we get a thorough but fast and repetitive lesson of the plants that grow on the lands. There are 7 different bushes and 3 different grasses. There are four of them that ranks highest when it comes to grazing the animals, and one is poisonous. There is also one grass that was imported from Europe with the coming of the white man and it is more or less useless. But there is white rice and another one that contains about 18 percent protein, so it is money in the bank for a beef-farmer. I find the whole thing quite interesting but confusing.
After walking around the brushes with their thorns for about 15 minutes we get in the car again and I try to get as many thorns that I can out of my feet and out of my shoes. We head out to rope us a cow...
