Nestled in the hills of Monroe County Ohio, Polled Herefords have been roaming the pastures at Turner Hereford Farm for nearly 40 years. Our genetics are proven and have stood the test of time. While you will find old line genetics, you will also see that we are progressive in our mating which has allowed us to continue to move our cattle forward. 

As you look at our website and our cattle, you will find that we focus primarily on 3 things in our breeding program.
 

1. Genetics. We believe that if you use cattle that have a proven track record you will consistently be able to produce great cattle. We try to mate our cattle featuring the maternal side. In other words we look for great females to fill our pastures, and then we look for bulls that come from great females.
2. Performance. We try to breed our cattle to consistently produce EPD's that well exceed the breed standards. We do not believe that you should over-emphasis the numbers, but we do believe that a low birth weight EPD will aid with birthing ease and that a high WW and YW EPD will consistently produce animals with superior growth. You will find that our cattle emphasize birthing ease, but still have very acceptable growth numbers.
3. Appearance. We believe that the cattle need to be attractive. We want our cattle to be able to perform in the pasture, but also believe that they should be able to perform in the show ring.
