701 Cattle Co.

701 Cattle Co. is a Wagyu cattle breeder in Carson, ND, serving north-central North Dakota near Minot. It emphasizes breed standards and conducts routine health screening to support strong, resilient herds.

Cattle graze on spacious pastures and benefit from personalized handling that encourages calm temperament and early socialization with the farm family. Calves are raised in sheltered paddocks with access to fresh water, mineral supplements, and balanced forage to foster healthy growth. Young stock receive free-choice access to trace minerals and a measured grain ration designed to support steady growth before breeding season. Michael Schmid applies rotational grazing techniques and prioritizes soil health, reflecting a ranching tradition that spans generations in the region.

701 Cattle Co. combines steady stewardship with careful sire selection and a focus on forage-based nutrition to offer consistent quality among Wagyu cattle. The operation maintains detailed health records and strives to minimize its environmental footprint through managed grazing and responsible manure recycling.
