David Unterbrunner

David Unterbrunner raises Hereford cattle in Artesian, SD, McPherson County and eastern South Dakota near Sioux Falls. With more than ten years of experience, he maintains registration with the American Hereford Association and follows routine health testing protocols.

His cattle graze on native grass pastures and calves are raised in a low-stress environment with daily handling to promote healthy growth. The family-owned operation traces its roots to early regional homesteading and emphasizes sustainable grazing practices alongside gentle cattle management. Buyers often note consistent weaning weights and the herd’s calm temperament after integrating new animals.

Animal housing includes well-ventilated loafing sheds and access to clean water sources year-round, reflecting attention to welfare through all seasons. Regular pasture rotation supports soil health and encourages balanced forage diets that contribute to steady weight gains in both calves and breeding stock. Membership in local agricultural groups helps keep the operation aligned with emerging best practices and community standards.
