High Prairie Farms

High Prairie Farms is a Hereford cattle operation in Fair Grove, MO, Greene County and the Springfield area. They participate in the American Hereford Association registry and conduct regular health screenings for common livestock diseases and genetic traits related to fertility and growth.

Cattle graze on gently rolling pastures bordering native timber, receiving daily hands-on care that supports calm behavior and social bonding within the herd. Calves are introduced to seasonal rotational grazing and early handling routines to encourage resilience and ease of management. The farm’s history of family stewardship emphasizes gentle stockmanship, clean housing and tailored nutrition for each developmental stage.

Breeding selections aim for balanced muscling and maternal traits, reflecting the farm’s commitment to quality beef production with predictable performance. Neighbors often comment on the cattle’s even disposition and steady growth, qualities that come from consistent care and pasture diversity. Efforts to maintain pasture health through rotational grazing contribute to sustainable land use and nutrient-rich forage.
