Rishel Angus
Rishel Angus is a family-owned purebred Angus operation that has been in business since 1966. We were one of the first breeders to make a commitment to identify the carcass merit of our cattle because we believed that the real focus of our program should be the acceptance of our end product by the consumer. Because of this effort, many of the leading individuals for carcass merit in the Angus breed carry the Rishel Angus, B/R, prefix.
We have kept performance records on our herd since its inception and have identified outstanding cows and cow families and perpetuated them. Our mission is to produce superior Angus genetics based on economically important traits that provide more profitability for our customers, create more value for all segments of the beef cattle industry and ensure the consumer a very satisfying eating experience.
Our herd consists of approximately 280 producing-age females with approximately 100 yearling heifers bred annually. We calve and winter our cows on our ranch 10 miles south of North Platte, NE.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us by mail, phone, fax, or e-mail if you have questions about our cattle.
