Andrew Booher

Andrew Booher, Hereford cattle, Evart, MI, is based in Osceola County and West Michigan near Grand Rapids. He maintains membership in national beef cattle associations such as the American Hereford Association and follows health testing protocols that include BVD and Johne’s evaluations for breeding stock. The family operation traces its roots to the early 1980s, blending traditional farm methods with regenerative grazing practices that help preserve local grassland ecosystems.

Calves are raised on rotational pastures with daily social handling to promote consistent temperament and overall welfare. Pasture rotations are supplemented with a balanced grain mix formulated on-site, enriched with local hay and mineral supplements to support steady growth and reproductive health. Breeding selections emphasize structural soundness and maternal traits adaptable to mixed forage systems. Veterinary oversight provides personalized care and calving assistance when needed. A neighboring rancher once praised the uniformity of his calves at local fairs, reflecting a long-standing commitment to thoughtful cattle stewardship.
