At Plum Creek Wagyu, our cattle live a life of care, comfort, and premium nutrition, all of which contribute to the exceptional quality of Wagyu beef. Join us as we take you through a typical day on the ranch for our prized Wagyu cattle.
Morning Routine: Fresh Air and Grazing
The day begins early on the ranch as the cattle wake to the soft glow of the morning sun. Our Wagyu are free to roam expansive pastures, grazing on nutrient-rich grasses that are essential to their well-being. Their diet is carefully monitored to ensure they receive the ideal balance of nutrients for optimal growth and flavor development.
Midday: Attention to Every Detail
At midday, the cattle are checked by our dedicated ranch team. Every animal receives personalized attention to ensure their health and comfort. Wagyu cattle are known for their calm demeanor, and part of what makes them so content is the peaceful environment we provide, free from stress and overcrowding.
Premium Nutrition: The Key to Excellence
A key factor in Wagyu’s superior marbling and tenderness is their carefully formulated diet. In the afternoon, they are provided with a supplemental grain feed to enrich their nutritional intake. This feeding process is designed to develop the rich, buttery texture that sets Wagyu beef apart from other cattle breeds.
Evening: Rest and Relaxation
As the day winds down, the cattle find shade under trees or retreat to spacious shelters. They spend the evening in peace, enjoying a calm environment that allows them to rest. Their relaxed lifestyle plays a significant role in producing beef that’s renowned for its tenderness and flavor.
Why Care Matters
Every step in the care of our Wagyu cattle reflects our commitment to quality. The tranquil environment, balanced diet, and regular health monitoring all contribute to the premium beef that Plum Creek Wagyu is known for.
