"In many years of experience, I believe the Topp Herefords program to be the most outreaching, most aggressive – most progressive – breeding establishment I have had the privilege to work with. Hereford cattle based on performance truth on the range, in the feedyard, in the cooler."

made for this
RYAN TOPP
"I had a personal desire to expose and promote the benefits of Hereford genetics in the beef industry. I committed to that goal when I was about 16. I am competitive by nature so I focused on really culling hard and scaling everything back until only the superior genetics were left standing. I gutted out anything that didn’t serve or benefit. I want to give back to those who invest in our operation. I want to improve the profitability of our customers' operations."
MARIAH TOPP
"My favorite part of living and working on the ranch is the work ethic we get out here. There’s a lot you don’t want to do, but you persevere and work your hardest to get it done. You learn how to make fun out of work."
MICAH GUST
“What I like best about working at Topp Herefords is the guys I’m working with aren’t just coworkers but we are like one big family, we are all brothers who push each other to do are best each day and work our hardest to get the job done. I appreciate how in order and clean buildings and equipment are because it makes you want to push to do your best and be proud of where you work even more.”
RILEY EHLERS
“I like everything about my job! But specifically I appreciate how organized the ranch is. Ryan is very good at creating a plan and getting things done. I also love being able to work with the kids and having the whole family work towards an end goal.”
LOGAN TOPP
“My favorite part about having the opportunity to be a part of this business is building relationships with our customers, so that we are not only acquaintances who do business with each other, but also a well-managed team that has one common goal of bettering the industry as a whole. Now that I am in college, I am understanding the importance of increasing the profitability of not only our own ranch, but also that of everyone surrounding us so we can all keep strengthening the beef industry together.”
JORDAN STATON
“My favorite part about working at TH is the balance between business and being able to go cowboy. I enjoy being able to be horseback, roping and doctoring calves, and then being able to visit with customers.
Another great quality TH holds is its organization and management. The whole team does a great job finding the most efficient way to accomplish our goals. Each day brings its own new challenges. It’s a pleasure to work with a group of individuals that share the same work ethic and desire to improve our future.”
KEITH HERBERG
“I get to work with great people. Topp Herefords is a very positive work environment; we have the freedom to express our thoughts and opinions on tasks. I really appreciate the fact that I’m relied on for responsibilities and leadership and not just another employee being told what to do. Ryan drives us to become better every day, resulting in us wanting to work for more than just a paycheck. Most of all I get to work in an industry that I am passionate about and enjoy being in every day!”
LAUREN TOPP
"It gives you a good outlook on life to grow up here. I’ve learned you get out what you put in. I’m very thankful for my parents and for the life we’ve been given. I feel proud of the way they’ve raised us.
The best time of year is the fall. I love pretty much anything that involves horses. We’re moving cattle and weaning calves for the bull sale, and we really get to see the results of everyone's hard work."
