Is your bull up to the job?

Lucas Reina from Totally Vets examining the Stokman sale bulls for the Bull Breeding Soundness Evaluation. One more job done, and we feel one of the most important jobs we do preparing these bulls for their new owners.

The story of Quake Lake, close to Sherrie's family's summer cattle allotments, and the earthquake that happened when her father, Bob Sitz, was in Montana in August 1959 looking at purchasing their Harrison Montana ranch.

He always joked it was a shaky deal!

RIP those poor folks that never were found.

Life is certainly busy on Stokman Angus Farm at the moment, but we feel it’s important to share our story and show others what makes farming here in the Waikite Valley so special.

Through working with Farm to Farm Tours, we’ve had the privilege of welcoming farmers from around the world to our farm, giving them a glimpse into our unique farming style, Kiwi innovation, our Angus cattle, and the beautiful Waikite Valley we’re lucky enough to call home.

This winter we’ve hosted 50 Texans and 36 Brazilians — and what an experience it has been! We’ve loved sharing our farm, learning from others, hearing about different farming systems and cultures, and most importantly, making friendships with people from all around the world.

Farming may look different in every country, but there is always plenty we can learn from one another. 🌎🐂🇳🇿

We’re proud to share a little piece of Stokman Angus Farm with the world.

Calving season is well underway here at Stokman Angus.

With our heifers due to start calving on July 30, we're thrilled to have 50 healthy calves on the ground already, with just 23 heifers left to calve. A tight calving period gives these young females the best start for a productive future in the herd.

We're especially pleased with this group of heifers—they've calved beautifully. Quiet, attentive mothers with plenty of milk, just the kind of females we aim to breed.

It's been a great start to the season, and we're looking forward to welcoming the remaining calves over the coming days.

Ask Jake Stokman what drives the operation at Stokman Angus Farm, and his answer is simple: "We're trying to breed the perfect cow. We'll get there one day…"

It's this breeding philosophy that shapes everything at the Waikite Valley property, nestled between Rotorua and Taupo on the pumice soils that border Lake Ohakuri. The 200 bulls they produce and sell as yearlings? They're simply the byproduct of that relentless pursuit of the ideal female.

Jake knows that the Angus breed is constantly evolving with the introduction of new technology and new genetic information, so they need to ensure they’re fluid in their direction, ensuring females produce offspring that are efficient and profitable for their customers.

“That perfect cow gets back in calf every year after breeding as a heifer; she's fertile, maintains her condition, is structurally sound, and rears a good calf every year," Jake explains.

"You never notice her because you never have her in the yards with any issues, and she just does her job year in and year out.

That perfect cow remains the goal, but Jake's mother Sherrie is excited about where the herd has arrived after decades of careful breeding.

"After building the herd for so long from so few cows, we're now at the stage where we can keep the elite females each year and tighten their uniformity. We can get those 'peas in a pod' cows that produce good calves consistently,” says Sherrie.
