Waters Farms

Waters Farms raises Hereford cattle in Norborne, MO, Carroll County and northwest Missouri near Kansas City. The farm has focused on Hereford breeding for many years and follows recommended herd health protocols, including regular veterinary screenings, traceability records and genetic evaluations.

Cattle graze on mixed-grass pastures through rotational grazing plans that mimic natural herd movements and promote soil health. Calves receive early low-stress handling, scheduled socialization and calf jackets when needed, resulting in well-adjusted animals with steady growth and calm temperaments. Waters Farms operates as a family-run operation, supporting local agriculture through feed trials and educational demonstrations at regional fairs.

They work with local extension offices to refine breeding strategies and host community open barn days for visitors to learn about sustainable cattle operations. Those seeking sustainable beef or reliable foundation stock can expect consistent quality alongside transparent lineage. The herd’s balanced build and efficient feed conversion reflect a careful approach to selection.
