Degier Farms

Degier Farms raises Hereford cattle in Echo, MN, in Yellow Medicine County and the Minnesota prairie near Minneapolis. It follows recommended health screenings and works with regional breed associations to maintain quality breeding lines. The farm combines traditional ranching methods with ongoing efforts to refine herd genetics and pasture management.

Its cattle graze on diverse forage blends through rotational grazing that promotes soil health and steady weight gain. The operation offers feed tested for nutritional balance and provides mineral supplements to support growth and reproductive health. Calves arrive in open-air barns where consistent care and early group housing build sturdy immunity and ease adaptation.

By focusing on balanced growth rates and maternal traits, Degier Farms supports both hobby breeders and commercial operations seeking reliable seedstock. Local buyers note the herd’s gentle disposition, consistent performance and robust hardiness across Minnesota’s changing seasons.
