Fletcher Larsen

Fletcher Larsen is a Hereford cattle breeder in Valentine, NE, serving Cherry County and the Nebraska Sandhills near North Platte.

With more than ten years of experience, its breeding program follows industry-standard health testing protocols and maintains detailed lineage records for all calves. The herd participates in performance evaluations to support responsible selection for structural soundness and steady growth. Rotational grazing on native grass pastures supports pasture health and encourages biodiversity while reducing feed costs. In winter the herd receives homegrown hay rations to ensure steady condition through colder months.

Animals have sheltered access year-round, and calves are introduced to gentle handling routines from an early age to foster calm temperaments. The ranch’s focus on low-stress husbandry has made this stock known for solid conformation and dependable dispositions. Local farmers often comment on the cattle’s adaptability to both pasture-based operations and small-scale production.
