Prause Polled Hereford Farm

Prause Polled Hereford Farm, a Hereford cattle breeder in Yoakum, TX, operates in the Coastal Bend region near Corpus Christi. It has been breeding polled Hereford lines for more than twenty years and holds memberships in the American Hereford Association and the Texas Hereford Breeders Association. Every herd sire and replacement heifer undergoes genetic screening for fertility and calving ease alongside routine hoof and eye checks. Standardized carcass evaluations help buyers assess meat quality and yield.

Animals graze on native grass pastures with rotational grazing practices that support soil health and forage diversity. Calves are acclimated to handling pens early, promoting calm dispositions and safe interactions. The farm’s polled genetics reduce horn-related injuries and support a safer environment for both cattle and caretakers. The family-run operation traces its roots to a homestead established in the 1980s, and its work has been noted in regional agricultural newsletters.
