Bruce Blume
Bruce Blume is a Hereford cattle breeder in Redfield, SD, serving east-central South Dakota and Rapid City. He follows recognized breed standards, oversees regular veterinary evaluations for genetics and reproduction, and implements tailored nutrition plans to support growth and fertility across all age groups.
His cattle graze freely on mixed-grass pastures in spring and summer, with hay and mineral supplements provided during winter to maintain condition through colder periods. Calves are introduced to halter training and daily handling soon after birth, fostering confidence and ease of management when integrated into larger herds. The operation uses low-stress handling techniques, offers well-ventilated shelter buildings for extreme weather, and employs rotational grazing to improve forage availability and reduce parasite loads.
Bruce emphasizes environmental stewardship by rotating pastures, maintaining riparian buffers along water sources, and promoting on-farm biodiversity with cover crops. Detailed record-keeping tracks lineage, calving intervals, and growth metrics, allowing careful selection for structural soundness and temperament over multiple generations.
