Very few feedlots around here. Mostly rangefed cattle etc.
We raise a lot of wheat and soybean also.

If you like feedlots you would love the area up around Amarillo, Dumas and Herford.
You nasal cavities would certainly be opened up. </grin

I've got roots in Dumas as my Mother was raised on a farm not too far from town. My Grandmother lived in Dumas for as long as I can remember. Numerous aunts, uncles and cousins were born there and a number still live there. My cousin was mayor of Dumas several years ago.

I have fond memories of times spent in Dumas. One year I rode in the Dogie Days parade. Heck, I even got to "drive" a combine for a short time during wheat harvest. Pretty heady stuff for a big city girl from Houston.

(You couldn't always smell the feedlots, usually it was when the wind was blowing in just the right direction.) ;^)
