Bob Barden

Bob Barden breeds Red Poll cattle in Pequot Lakes, Minnesota, in Crow Wing County and the Brainerd Lakes area near Brainerd. He has focused on animal health through regular veterinary checks, parasite control measures, and recommended genetic screenings to preserve the breed’s traits. His cattle graze on managed pastures and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments and natural social behavior. At the family farm, calves are born in sheltered paddocks and receive careful monitoring through their first weeks before joining the adult herd on well-drained fields. Barden’s approach balances traditional pasture management with careful record keeping, ensuring each animal meets conformation standards for robust beef quality. Rotational grazing practices help maintain pasture health and support native grass growth across fenced paddocks. Detailed health and performance records track each animal’s development through weaning and beyond. Neighbors appreciate the farm’s quiet presence and the animals’ steady health throughout the seasons.
