Post Rock Cattle Co

Post Rock Cattle Co. has been running a registered Gelbvieh and Balancer operation near Barnard, in north-central Kansas, for more than 35 years. The program was founded by Bill and Leland Clark, and the operation now spans into a fifth and sixth generation of the Clark family working the same land — terrain that transitions from the Flint Hills prairies toward the high plains of western Kansas, roughly an hour north of Salina.

Owner Leland T. Clark and the next generation manage a cow herd of around 400 head on the ranch, with additional planned matings carried out in cooperator herds, giving the program more than 600 progeny to evaluate each cycle. The breeding philosophy centers on pairing strong visual appeal with verifiable genetic data — cattle that look the part and back it up with top-end EPDs. Bulls offered carry genomic-enhanced EPDs and are sire verified, with an emphasis on top-30% birthweight and calving ease figures alongside well-above-average growth and carcass indicators.

Gelbvieh cattle for sale from Post Rock have earned consistent recognition in the American Gelbvieh Foundation Scale and Rail Contest, where resident herd sires have produced grand champion carcass and average daily gain entries across multiple years in both the purebred and Balancer divisions. The cow herd grazes warm-season native grass from early May through mid-November, then moves to milo and corn stalks — conditions closely mirroring those faced by commercial producers in the surrounding region.
