Davis Wilton Beefmasters, DP Beefmasters

Davis Wilton Beefmasters, DP Beefmasters raise Beefmaster cattle in Ione, CA, Amador County and the Sacramento area. They draw on family experience and memberships in registry organizations, applying routine health screening and genetic evaluation to guide breeding decisions.

Their cattle graze gently rolling oak-studded foothill pastures with seasonal rotations that promote rich forage, and calves receive early handling to foster calm temperaments. Bonded with livestock guardian dogs, young animals move into communal paddocks as they develop social skills. Detailed herd records track birth weights, weaning data and vaccination schedules to ensure consistency through each generation. Owners and staff monitor pasture conditions daily and adjust stocking rates throughout the seasons to support optimal animal health. As a multigenerational farm, they emphasize balanced traits for foraging efficiency and maternal care. Producers in the area note the herd’s steady growth rates and docile disposition.
