We have horses to keep the grass down in the paddocks, but we get the slasher in from time to time, to keep the grass/undergrowth controlled and reduce the fire risk. Our house yard is 2 acres and we keep that under control with the ride-on mower, although in summer it is a constant task. We've been thinking about sheep, but we would need to redo all our fencing (currently three strand plain or barbed wire) to keep the sheep in (and safe from wandering dogs). Sheep do an excellent job on grass though, much neater than cattle for around the house.
