Morrison Ranch raises wagyu in Cavalier, ND, in northeastern North Dakota near Grand Forks. The ranch has maintained a thoughtful breeding program for over a decade, with regular health screenings following industry recommendations and alignment with national cattle association guidelines. Seasonal pastures are rotated across multiple paddocks to encourage diverse forage varieties and support soil health.
Cattle graze on open pasture, seek shade in seasonal shelter barns, and receive gentle handling from an early age to promote calm temperament and robust growth. Alfred Morrison applies decades of family farming experience to select for consistent marbling and sound structure. Weaning and finish programs are tailored with balanced nutrition plans and monitored to support steady development. Local producers often note the even temperament and dependable performance of these cattle under diverse conditions. Morrison Ranch balances traditional ranching values with practical husbandry methods to support animal health and well-being.
