Jason & Ashley Hasper

Jason & Ashley Hasper, Hereford cattle, Herreid, SD, are located in Campbell County and the prairie near Aberdeen. They have raised Hereford cattle for several years, participating in national registry programs, performing genetic evaluations, and conducting routine health screenings through veterinary partners.

The family operates on 150 acres of open pasture with a focus on rotational grazing, soil health, and attentive calf care during weaning seasons. Their herd benefits from daily handling to encourage a calm temperament and ease of management. They winter cattle in well-ventilated barns and feed a balanced ration of locally produced hay and grains to support steady growth.

As a multigenerational farm, they draw on decades of regional livestock experience to maintain herd health and genetic consistency. Local producers often note reliable maternal traits and efficient feed conversion among offspring. Educational visits from nearby schools reflect their interest in agricultural outreach and helping the next generation learn about livestock care.
