Notes

A study of cattle ranching practices in Western Canada, prepared by C. W. Vrooman, G. D. Chattaway, and Andrew Stewart. Undertaken by the federal Experimental Farms Service and the Economic Division of the Marketing Service, with further guidance from the University of Alberta’s Departments of Political Economy and Animal Husbandry, the investigation examines the practical and economic challenges of ranch management and organization.

The research—carried out between 1938 and 1941—covers three major grazing environments: the Great Plains, the Foothills, and the Montane and Semi-Montane regions spanning Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. The volume provides a look at land use, herd management, labour, feeding practices, range conditions, and the broader economic pressures shaping ranch operations during the period.
