PROFILE |
 |
Meanwhile, back at the ranch ... the sprawling King Ranch, that is. King Ranch, founded in 1853, extends beyond the legendary 825,000 acres that are home to about 60,000 cattle and a wide variety of animal species. The business oversees ranching and farming interests in Texas and Florida, but these days it also benefits from oil and gas royalties, farming (cotton, citrus, and sugar), and retail operations (designer saddles, leather goods). In addition, King Ranch also beefs up revenues with tourist dollars from hunters and sightseers. It sold its Kentucky horse farm, once a producer of champion thoroughbreds, and its primary oil and gas subsidiary. About 85 descendants of founder Richard King own King Ranch.
