Steven Huffman

Steven Huffman, Hereford cattle breeder in Lyons, NE, works in Burt County and the Omaha area along the Missouri River. He has raised Hereford cattle for more than a decade, maintains membership in the American Hereford Association and follows recommended vaccination and BVD, Johne’s and brucellosis testing protocols. Herds graze on rotational pastures seeded with native grasses and legumes, supported by free-stall barns that provide shelter and soft bedding in all seasons. Daily hands-on care and early exposure to handlers help calves develop calm temperaments and allow close health monitoring from birth.

His ranch leverages natural forage, managed grazing and crop rotation to maintain soil health and support consistent nutrition year round. Focus on maternal traits and uniform growth means calves wean at healthy weights and show the breed’s characteristic docility. Multi-generational land stewardship guides his commitment to sustainable practices across fields and water resources. Local farming neighbors often seek his practical insights on herd management and pasture improvement.
