Triple K Gelbvieh

Triple K Gelbvieh raises purebred gelbvieh cattle near Basehor, Kansas, west of the Kansas City metro area. Albert Knapp and Mary and Nick Knapp operate the family-owned seedstock program, which produces purebred gelbvieh and gelbvieh Balancer bulls and heifers for commercial cattlemen across the region.

The program's selection focus centers on functional, structurally sound cattle that hold up in the pasture. Cows in the herd are bred to calve by their second birthday and are selected for longevity, with the goal of keeping productive females in the herd for 12 to 15 years. The operation places a strong emphasis on multi-trait balanced EPDs rather than chasing single-trait trends, relying on proven AI sires to steadily move genetic benchmarks in the right direction. Artificial insemination, embryo transfer, yearling ultrasound, DNA testing, and rigorous culling are all part of how the herd's genetic profile is managed over time.

Those looking for gelbvieh cattle for sale in Kansas will find that Triple K has built a recognized program within the breed — Al and Mary Knapp were named American Gelbvieh Association Breeders of the Year in 2010. The operation has also developed a show record through multiple generations of the Knapp family, with the cattle's pasture performance remaining the core measure of the program's success.
