Lakota Ranch is a forage based Devon cattle farm which utilizes modern technology and ancient wisdom to produce model grass beef cattle, and at Lakota Ranch, Devon cattle are placed in an environment which mimics the conditions in which these cattle originated. By doing this, we determine which Devon genetics are easily maintained, highly fertile, and the best suited for pasture production. Like a large part of the Grass - Fed industry, we have identified DEVON cattle as the best suited breed for forage based systems. The Devon breed was used to settle not only this country but many others as well. This is due to the many wonderful attributes of this historic breed, like carcass merit, adaptability, docility, and foraging ability to name a couple. These attributes were recognized by our ancestors and have been verified by modern science. The difference in Lakota Ranch and the rest of the beef industry is that we realized this fact over 50 years ago; we not only realized it, but we have strived to enhance it. We have weighed, scanned, measured, tested, and evaluated Devon cattle, our soils, forages, and minerals to see what works and eliminate the things which do not. The result is a management system that strives to maximize the energy in our soils, convert this ground energy into high quality plant energy, and then maximize the plant energy by harvesting it with the genetically superior foraging machine known as the Devon. At Lakota, we look to not only market cattle, semen, and embryos but to accompany this product with a management system. We offer follow up assistance to all our customers, provide consulting services, help set up and manage breeding programs, and run a forage based all breeds bull test at Lakota Ranch.
