50 acres. 6 fields but would split into 12 paddocks. Old PP but flat and decent ground. How many store lambs could you finish from mid June to 31st October? Obviously depends on weather but rough idea.

Depends if op is going to hopper feed lambs or just feed grass? Should carry 7/8 acre if grass growing well. Up it further if hopper feeding. Summer drought would drop that down.
