About
Jungels Shorthorn Farm JUNGELS SHORTHORN FARM maintains a spring calving herd of 325 head. 200 of which are registered Shorthorn and ShorthornPlus females. 100 Purebred Angus cows are bred to white Shorthorn bulls and utilized for our Blue Roan program. The balance of the cows are commercial cows and serve as recipients for a growing ET program. The cattle at JSF are raised in a ranch setting, are expected to calve on their own, flesh easy, and breed back. Each year we hold 2 sales, our annual Female sale at the Ranch, Durham Nation, selling 100 head of Shorthorn and ShorthornPlus bred and open heifers. In February we hold our annual bull sale, selling 60 bulls and 50 commercial bred females. In the spring of each year we source and develop approximately 250 commercial and purebred heifers from our bull customers, later marketing as bred heifers. In addition to our purebred operation, we feed cattle in our 999 head feedlot, again, sourcing steer calves from our customers and backgrounding to around 900 lbs.
