Kent Limousin

Kent Limousin, Limousin cattle, Lancaster, MN, works in Southeastern Minnesota near Rochester. Terry Kent has spent over fifteen years breeding Limousin cattle registered with the American Limousin Association and supported by comprehensive health testing.

Calves graze on rotating pastures and receive daily handling to promote friendly dispositions. The herd benefits from a herd health plan including annual hoof inspections and vaccination schedules guided by local veterinarians. The program combines family farm traditions with data-driven breeding decisions, and recent offspring have shown improved weight gains and feed efficiency.

Attention to maternal traits and precise record keeping helps maintain strong calving ease and maternal performance. Dry-lot facilities are cleaned daily and calves have access to shaded shelters to protect them during hot summer days. Visitors appreciate the hands-on tour of the barns and pasture rotations, remarking on the balance between practical farming and animal welfare.
