How exactly cattle farming works?

[Arel37]

Sometimes even i feed the cow, i get only 1 meat piece while sometimes even if i didn't feed it at all, i get lots of meat. What exactly meat output depends on?

Also do herding cattle on the open fields do something?

PW is long dead, maybe you asked about PK but posted in PW section? If you know how, you may try looking at PW/ PK source code to learn how exactly the mechanics works.

Yeah that's the case. I thought they were merged.
