Zachary Dalberg

Zachary Dalberg, Shorthorn cattle, Claire City, SD, farms in Roberts County and the Big Sioux River Valley near Sioux Falls with a focus on lineage and performance. As a member of recognized cattle associations, Zachary follows breeding standards that promote genetic diversity and maternal strength, and each animal undergoes periodic veterinary assessments and vaccinations.

Calves grow on open pasture with daily handling sessions to encourage a calm temperament and steady early weight gain. Sustainable grazing practices and rotational pasturing support soil health, balanced forage availability and natural herd behavior.

The operation has earned praise for producing cattle with sturdy bone structure, well-balanced frames and docile dispositions valued by commercial beef programs. Zachary keeps transparent records on lineage, health protocols and performance metrics, sharing information with buyers to support informed decisions. Attention to animal welfare, combined with careful pasture management, reflects a commitment to quality and long-term sustainability.
