Raising Missouri Pasture-Fed Beef
1. Raising Missouri Pasture-Fed Beef
While pasture fed cattle have been in
Missouri as long as the earliest settlers,
this is actually one of humankind’s oldest
interests and occupations. The ability to
domesticate animals in order to provide a
regular food supply has determined
civilization's rise and fall throughout our
histories.
However, it is modernly as precise and
specific as any other trade.
It isn't anything you can just start doing
once you graduate high school. While you can always get a job as a "hired hand", there's a
wide gulf of learning between being able to drive a farm truck to actually caring for and raising
live animals - and a host of responsibilities you can't learn to shoulder from any text book. You
just can't go out into a pasture and pick up a steak.
Most who raise livestock have done so their entire lives, and have been able to listen to their
parents and grandparents, uncles, and aunts to glean their experience in order to make it their
own. However, any farmer can tell you that every day out there is another one in the
classroom. And most farm living rooms are filled with books and magazines which tell the
new methods and techniques which are being tried.
In our farm, we are descended from a long
line of farmers in every generation we've
been able to trace. You'll be able to find a
bit more about our farm managers and
operators at the About Us page.
In this section, we want to tell our story of
what we've found workable and
sustainable in order to both maintain this
way of life and continue to provide you
with the healthiest beef and produce
available.

and their calves wouldn't appreciate it much...)

3. About Worstell Farms
Our family goes back on both sides with
farmers. As far as we can trace.
And that tradition came to Mexico,
Missouri around 1960 to purchase the
current farming operation.
Jim and Laura Worstell established a
working farm there and then, and raised a
big family of 8 kids, along with several
dogs, cats, and an occasional pet squirrel
or raccoon. And don't forget the llama's
and peacocks...
In 2000, Robert Worstell returned to the
farm to take over operations management
(as well as the day-to-day chores) and
shares these duties with his mother and sister (well, not the chores, so much.)
On approximately 250 acres of land, which is mixed hillsides, bottom, and woods, we raise a
combination of annual row-crops and also our beef. Typical of this area, we have marginal
land which is better suited to cattle than cultivation (which is typical of most cattle-farming).
We've found that where we run our cattle actually improves the soil and its health - as long as
we pay attention and actually manage how long and when they graze where. As we continue to
study and learn about and from our cattle, our daily lessons help us to improve the quality and
quantity of beef we raise.We practice managed grazing and are transitioning over to ultra-
high-density stocking, as this is even better for the land and actually requires more cattle per
acre to keep up with the lush growth and pasture renovation.
All our beef is from local stock. Mostly black Angus cross-bred cows, with our current Belted
Galloway bull named "Gene Autry" is servicing these well.
Ordering Our Beef
We only take local orders, so contact us via the website or call directly. Due to Federal laws,
we cannot sell our beef out of Missouri – you'll have to buy it here. Generally, our beef is
spoken for well before it's ready for processing. However, contact us for what we have coming
up and we can give you an estimate on when the next one is coming available.
We are also offering La Cense beef, which is USDA inspected and can be shipped anywhere
in the US. Please see http://worstellfarms.com for details.

About the Author:
Dr. Robert Worstell retired from a corporate career in graphic design to the much calmer and
healthier American Midwest, to inherit running the family farm. His constant work and
research has been to improve the sustainability of this Missouri “beef ranch”. The results show
that grass fed beef, locally and directly marketed is the route to profitability, not following
commodity trends.
Dr. Worstell's training in web design has helped him move the operation more online, as well
as giving him new networking opportunities to promote Worstell Farms beef products. He is
also a prolific author and has recently completed research into the all-time best self help
books, with his “Freedom Is – (period).” Out of the 7 books published this year, he's also
produced a fiction work, “The Dreamer Dreamed” - itself a breakthrough use of fiction to
explore the metaphysical aspect of dream meaning. All of these are available at

Dr. Worstell may be contacted through his several blogs and websites for interviews and
appearances.
