Derrick Vogt

Derrick Vogt raises Hereford cattle in New Washington, IN, Clark County and southern Indiana near Louisville. He has been involved with the breed for more than fifteen years, adhering to lineage verification protocols through the American Hereford Association and participating in regional livestock shows. Cattle graze on rotational pastures managed for soil health and forage quality, with quarterly veterinary health checks and balanced mineral supplementation to promote optimal development.

From day one, calves receive hands-on attention and are raised in small groups to encourage natural behaviors and ease of handling during routine procedures. The farm traces its roots back to a midwestern homestead and focuses on preserving maternal strength and feed efficiency, traits valued by family operations and commercial producers alike. Buyers often note consistent temperament and structural soundness, qualities that reflect the operation’s commitment to selective breeding and careful record keeping.
