Rops Limousin

Rops Limousin, Limousin cattle, Davis, SD, Turner County and the James River Valley near Sioux Falls. Rops Limousin is a longstanding member of the American Limousin Registry, conducts annual testing for bovine viral diarrhea and Johne’s disease, and follows recommended health protocols. Calves are raised on pasture with rotational grazing, socialized from birth and handled daily to encourage calm temperaments.

Focus on maternal traits and efficient feed conversion guides breeding selections, and several herd sires meet industry performance standards for growth and carcass quality. The herd grazes native grasses through spring and summer and relies on supplemental hay sourced on site during winter months.

Many local producers value the herd for its adaptability to South Dakota’s climate and consistent production under modest feeding regimes. Annual farm visits offer a hands-on look at handling facilities and detailed information about breeding goals in a relaxed setting.
