Jarrett Petersen

Jarrett Petersen is a Limousin cattle breeder in Springfield, ID, based in Bannock County and the Snake River Plain near Pocatello. With more than a decade of experience, Petersen follows breed association guidelines and regular health-testing protocols to support sound temperament and structural integrity. Each calf spends its early weeks on rotational pasture before moving to a climate-controlled barn, and receives daily handling to foster calm behavior around handlers.

The herd traces to foundation lines valued for consistent muscling and a calm disposition, traits that suit both show rings and small-scale beef production. Careful record-keeping and pasture-based grazing rotations reflect a focus on animal welfare and sustainable land stewardship. Anecdotal feedback from local farmers highlights a steady growth rate in the herd and the reliable temperament of both mature cows and weaned calves. Petersen holds active membership in the American Limousin Association and shares insights at regional cattlemen’s meetings.
