Cattle with Grit
HI/ Cattle Co. is owned and operated by Logan and Jennifer Hill in the heart of the Nebraska Sandhills. We are passionate about raising balanced Angus and Black Hereford cattle that will increase value in any herd. We reject the theory that cattle must be terminally or maternally focused, instead seeking to increase the pounds that pay the bills without sacrificing maternal grace and longevity.
Our motto, Cattle with Grit, is more than a play on our sandy terrain. It's a reflection of our commitment to raising cattle that can survive and thrive no matter what mother nature throws at us. As generational ranchers we've seen the hard years and we know cattlemen can't afford cows that won't work for a living. In this industry, we all need grit.
Our family has been operating in the cow/calf sector for more than 100 years and expanded into seedstock in 2011. We started our Black Herefords from the ground up, using the Hereford and Angus genetics we'd seen work so well in our cow/calf operation to produce F1s we believed in. We believe that Black Herefords could change the industry and are excited to be a part of it.
Our 100 years old roots began in rugged NW Colorado. Following decades of drought and struggles with federal lands we transitioned our operation to Nebraska, Beef Country, where we are growing our program through commitment to quality genetics and timeless cattle. At HI/ we don’t chase fads, we focus on the real needs of true cattlemen.
