Springfield Angus was formed in 1976 starting with a small group of performance cattle. The depth and quality of our program have progressed over the years.

In the spring of 2002 we dispersed our cattle to resolve a partnership. Embryos were retained from our best cows in preparation of rebuilding the program. At present we are calving 200 females. We plan to increase our numbers to a 250 purebred cow operation.

Our present breeding program represents a balance of low to moderate birth weights along with strong maternal, growth and carcass genetics utilizing the breed's most proven sires.

Our goals are:

• Provide cattle to producers that excel in all areas.
  
• Market bulls by private treaty. Springfield Angus does a yearly, on–farm bull test.
  
• Market replacement females through private treaty and/or production sales.
  
• Serve customers with marketing assistance.
