Topp Herefords

Topp Herefords raises Hereford cattle in Grace City, ND, serving ranchers across north-central North Dakota near Minot. As a family operation, it has refined its breeding program over the years to emphasize sound structure and temperament.

The operation participates in the American Hereford Association and follows recommended genetic screening along with routine hoof and eye health evaluations. Cattle graze on open pastures and have access to free-stall barns for shelter, and calves receive early handling to encourage calm temperaments. Their breeding goals include balanced growth rates, structural soundness and docile dispositions across every calf crop.

Ranchers often note consistent weight gains and ease of herd integration when introducing these cattle to diverse grazing systems. Rolling fields managed through rotational grazing help maintain pastures and support the health of every animal on the farm. The farm offers personal tours and maintains transparent records so visitors can see lineage and health histories firsthand.
