Superior Wagyu, LLC is a wagyu cattle breeder in Red Oak, Iowa, in the Midwest near Des Moines. Its herd selection process draws on detailed lineage records and comprehensive health testing protocols to monitor genetic traits, ensure disease resistance, and prevent common bovine disorders. Animals spend significant time on rotational pasture and receive a carefully calibrated grain regimen to support even marbling, while young calves undergo twice-daily gentle handling to build trust and adaptability.

Superior Wagyu, LLC participates in breed-specific programs through the American Wagyu Association to verify pedigrees and uphold industry guidelines. The operation began as a small family-run enterprise and has grown steadily over multiple seasons, preserving a focus on sustainable land stewardship across rolling native-grass pastures. Local cattle-farming journals have highlighted the farm’s thoughtful herd management and consistent beef quality, reflecting the commitment to breeding transparency and customer satisfaction.
