Smith Wagyu

Smith Wagyu, Wagyu cattle, Whitehall, MT, operates in Madison County and southwestern Montana near Butte. Johnathan Smith has more than ten years of experience following guidelines from recognized beef cattle associations and conducting regular health screenings on all breeding stock.

The herd grazes on open pasture under rotational grazing systems that support soil health and bovine well-being. Calves receive daily handling and exposure to seasonal weather to build resilience and a calm disposition while remaining on the family-run farm. Each animal follows a customized finishing program that combines pasture growth with grain supplementation to achieve consistent marbling targets and reliable weight gains.

Family values drive transparent communication about pedigrees, feeding practices and environmental stewardship. This careful approach has earned respect among local chefs and ranchers for offering consistently well-developed cattle. All breeding cattle are DNA-verified to ensure accurate pedigree records and traceability from birth to market.
