Gene Zarling

Gene Zarling is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Plainview, MN, in southeastern Minnesota near Rochester. With over a decade of experience in livestock farming, the operation follows established herd health protocols and participates in breed registry programs through the American Shorthorn Association. Cattle graze on rotational pastures, and calves receive daily hands-on socialization with attention to weaning and group acclimation to foster calm temperaments.

The farm maintains low-stress handling facilities and works with local veterinarians to ensure timely vaccinations, testing, and regular hoof care sessions. Each spring, births are monitored closely, with calves born on pasture whenever conditions allow and under shelter when weather demands. A steady stream of repeat inquiries reflects positive experiences shared by neighboring farms, hobby ranchers, and fairgoers.

Recent show entries have earned consistent placings in county and state fair competitions, including breed-specific classes. The ranch lies on land that has supported grazing herds for three generations.
