Kelley D Potter

Kelley D Potter raises Limousin cattle in Cincinnati, Iowa, in southern Iowa near Des Moines. The farm has been developing its herd for over a decade under American Limousin Association guidelines, including routine health screening and careful pedigree records. The cattle graze pastures rotating through native grass fields, and each animal receives daily hands-on attention to support steady growth and well-being.

Calves are introduced to regular handling from birth, which encourages calm herd members and easier management at each stage. The cattle have placed in regional livestock shows and supplied quality breeding stock to neighboring family farms. The operation maintains a well-ventilated barn for shelter during harsh weather and uses a balanced feed program tailored to each age group. The operation participates in local livestock events to exchange best practices and stay connected with the agricultural community. This approach aims to produce cattle that are both resilient on pasture and efficient in feed conversion.
