Emma Rushton

Emma Rushton is a Hereford cattle breeder in Waverly, TN, serving Humphreys County and western Tennessee near Nashville. She has been raising Hereford cattle for more than a decade, maintains membership in the American Hereford Association, and follows recommended BVD and Johne’s disease screening protocols.

Her cattle graze on rotational pastures with access to shelter and clean water year-round, and calves are introduced to family routines early to encourage gentle handling. Calving is managed on-site under close observation during peak seasons to ensure newborn welfare. The Rushton farm has been in the family for three generations, giving Emma a deep understanding of pasture management and herd well-being.

A focus on genetic selection for temperament and feed efficiency supports consistent growth rates, and Emma’s farm has earned recognition for quality herd management. Environmental stewardship through soil conservation practices and a veterinarian-advised vaccination schedule underscores a commitment to responsible cattle stewardship and reliable herd development.
