Mittag Genetics
Mittag Genetics, Chianina cattle, Creston, Iowa, Southwest Iowa near Des Moines, maintains a herd focused on temperament and soundness. Owner Tucker Mittag brings over a decade of experience and follows registry-recommended health testing to ensure genetic integrity. Participation in American Chianina Association programs supports adherence to breed standards and health protocols.
Animals graze on rotated pastures across the family’s rolling fields, a practice that promotes balanced nutrition and muscle development. Calves receive daily handling from birth to foster a calm disposition, while young stock also engage in monitored group socialization to encourage herd cohesion.
Breeding selections are informed by detailed performance records and structural evaluations to improve growth rates and frame. The operation values sustainable practices, including soil conservation measures, to support long-term herd health and pasture quality. A simple low-stress handling facility with ample shade supports animal welfare during routine health checks and breeding evaluations.
