Danny Long

Danny Long, Limousin cattle in Lebanon, MO, is based in Laclede County and the Ozarks near Springfield. He has been breeding Limousin cattle for over a decade and follows guidelines from the American Limousin Association, maintaining health screening protocols, including annual veterinary exams, genetic evaluations and careful record-keeping. All calves spend their first weeks on rotational pastures, with access to open-sided shelters, and receive daily low-stress handling to promote calm temperaments and ease of transition.

Danny’s herd benefits from balanced feeding programs that adapt to seasonal changes, ensuring steady weight gains and strong muscle development. Many of his cattle have earned high scores at local agricultural fairs for structural soundness and uniformity. He works closely with a large-animal veterinarian during calving season, supporting easy births and calf vitality. The farm’s focus on pasture-based husbandry and transparent record-sharing has earned praise from neighboring livestock producers.
