Richard Starling

Richard Starling, Wagyu cattle, Clinton, Ohio, serves Summit County and the Akron area. With more than ten years of breeding experience in Wagyu cattle, he follows established breed association guidelines, invests in ongoing education through breeder symposiums, and works closely with veterinarians to maintain genetic health and disease prevention protocols. Every calf is pasture-raised under rotational grazing systems that allow natural foraging behaviors, promote soil health, and support a balanced diet free from unnecessary growth stimulants.

Daily hands-on interaction and low-stress handling techniques help ensure calm dispositions, while individualized care plans guide each animal through milestones from weaning to finishing phases. He uses ultrasound imaging and comprehensive EPD data to inform breeding selections that balance marbling potential with structural soundness for consistent herd improvement. His small herd size allows focused attention on each animal’s well-being, from mineral-balanced nutrition to regular hoof and dental health checks scheduled per seasonal needs. This approach reflects a long-standing family tradition of thoughtful livestock stewardship and a genuine respect for the land and the animals under his care.
