Vorthmann Limousin

Vorthmann Limousin is a Limousin cattle breeder in Council Bluffs, IA, in southwestern Iowa near Omaha.

Roger Vorthmann has been involved in Limousin breeding for over a decade and adheres to breed association standards and recommended health screenings. Its cattle graze on year-round rotational pasture, receiving daily hands-on care to encourage calm temperaments from the start, and each spring calves are born in straw-bedded barns for shelter and close monitoring.

Roger schedules regular veterinary checkups and hoof trimming throughout the year, and as a member of the American Limousin Association, Vorthmann Limousin registers every animal to maintain accurate lineage records. Roger’s approach aims for balanced traits in muscle development and docility, making the cattle versatile for both meat quality and family farm settings. Performance evaluations and custom feeding trials help maintain consistent growth rates and maternal qualities across herds. Linebreeding is minimized to preserve genetic diversity in the herd.
