Swanson Cattle Co.

Swanson Cattle Co. is a Wagyu cattle breeder in Oxford, NE, and serves south-central Nebraska near McCook. Under Seth Swanson’s guidance, the operation adheres to American Wagyu Association standards, participates in Nebraska Cattlemen’s Association events and follows recommended health testing to ensure herd integrity. Animals are raised on rotational pasture systems with ample space for natural grazing and receive early handling to promote calm dispositions.

The operation emphasizes soil health and sustainable practices, rotating fields to support forage diversity and water quality. Its focus on consistent marbling and uniform growth has won steady interest from regional meat purveyors. Cattle remain on pasture through two seasons before transitioning to a tailored finishing ration.

Each calf is individually recorded with birth weights and lineage details, offering transparent reporting to prospective buyers. Records trace back to the first registered sires, underscoring the operation’s commitment to breed integrity.
