Leemon Cattle Company

Leemon Cattle Company is a breeder of Shorthorn cattle in Fairland, OK, serving Ottawa County and the Ozarks near Joplin.

It is a member of national cattle associations and follows registry guidelines with routine veterinary screenings, including fertility and disease panels. Herds are selected for structural soundness and genetic balance to support both commercial and small scale farming needs, with detailed pedigree records available on request. Rooted in a family ranching tradition, it draws on regional cattle expertise handed down through generations.

Each pasture is managed for rotational grazing and calves are raised in close contact with their dam to encourage natural behaviors. Rolling pastures and shelter belts offer varied terrain and protection throughout the seasons. Owner Cody Leemon brings family farm roots to breeding choices, emphasizing gentle temperament and maternal strength. Routine socialization sessions help calves develop calm temperaments around people and machinery.
