Closed-range ranching allow ranchers to turn a better profit because shorter cattle drives resulted in ranchers losing fewer cattle.

Option B

Explanation:

Closed range ranching is the type of ranching where the cattle cannot roam freely according to their own choice. The land in which they roam is closed or fenced which limits their area of roaming into other land.

Since the area in which they can roam is fenced, the probability of the owner losing the cattle is very less as compared to the losing of cattle if the area of ranching is open and not fenced. Thus making it profitable.
