Hines Hill Hereford

Hines Hill Hereford breeds Hereford cattle in Minden, Iowa, Pottawattamie County and southwest Iowa near Omaha. The farm has been raising purebred Herefords for over two decades and participates in the American Hereford Association’s herd improvement programs, with regular veterinary health checks and genetic screening.

Animals graze on rotational pastures and are handled with low-stress practices to support natural behavior and ease of movement. Calves are introduced to barn settings and human interaction early, promoting confidence and consistent weight gains. A family operation with deep roots in cattle ranching, the farm balances traditional husbandry with practical innovations to produce Hereford cattle known for calm dispositions and structural soundness. Seasonal forage is supplemented with a balanced ration formulated to support muscle development and reproductive health. Their cattle regularly appear at local county fairs and performance sales, underscoring consistent growth rates and adherence to breed standards.
