Terry Keown

Terry Keown is a Hereford cattle breeder in Georgetown, KY, in Scott County and the Bluegrass region near Lexington. For over fifteen years, Terry Keown has been actively involved in registered Hereford associations, maintaining membership in the American Hereford Association and supporting national herd improvement programs through performance recording and routine health testing protocols.

Cattle graze seasonal pastures that rotate across hillside and bottomland paddocks, complemented by a forage-based ration balanced for optimal growth and fertility. Regular low-stress handling sessions help calves adapt to human interaction early, contributing to the breed’s characteristic docility. Winter housing in a well-ventilated barn provides comfort during colder months without disrupting the herd’s overall health.

The farm rests on land that has supported livestock for three generations, and the breeding program prioritizes maternal strength, structural soundness, and feed efficiency. This emphasis has led to several county fair ribbons and favorable feedback from neighboring producers who value consistent performance.
