You will probably get a 100 different answers for this one. I use 1.3 acres per steer for ungrazed land. Some will say 1.3 steer per acre. Somewhere in between would be safe I would assume. Use 2200lbs average crop from an acre along with 15lbs consumed per head per day.... You could play it safe and use 2 acres per a head for the first 18 months and recalculate from there.
Of course the local extension would be able to give you a more accurate answer (I hate that answer but it does pertain here).
