John, I run some cattle in some woods type pastures. One place i have is 450 acres with less than 100 acres being open. Keep in mind that the last several years its been really dry, so it aint growing much grass, more like dirt. I have 35 mommas on that place. I feed on average 3.5-4 rolls per year per head, but i also feed cubes and salt meal. Those cattle are never rolling fat but look good enough. I could probably run more on the place but just ain't done it. Those cows rely on the trees and shrubs. I will hold out on hay as long as i can and make them eat on the trees. But like you say, its cheap land to lease and there's alot of it most people won't mess with. More land=More cows=More Money
