Rick Couch

Rick Couch raises Shorthorn cattle in Quapaw, OK, Ottawa County and the Ozark region near Joplin. With over 15 years of experience breeding registered stock, he maintains an active membership in the American Shorthorn Association and follows comprehensive health testing protocols to support strong bloodlines.

His cattle graze on rotational pastures designed to mimic native prairie with fescue and clover, and calves receive daily handling to ensure calm temperaments. All cattle are spring-born on pasture and receive trace mineral supplements tested annually for consistent nutrition from trusted suppliers. He prioritizes low-stress weaning and natural herd socialization because he believes in fostering confidence at every stage.

The farm’s gently rolling hills, century-old fencing and wide shade trees reflect a multigenerational commitment to land stewardship. Customers note the consistent growth rates and solid conformation of his calves, attributes that underscore steady breeding goals and attentive care.
