Alan T McDaniel

Alan T McDaniel, Chianina cattle, Indianola, IA in Warren County and central Iowa near Des Moines on his property. He has focused on Chianina cattle for several years, steadily participating in national registry programs, maintaining detailed herd records and ensuring routine health screenings at every stage.

The cattle are raised on open pasture with company of other livestock, given hands-on care from a young age and early socialization to promote calm temperaments and steady development. McDaniel follows a strict pasture rotation plan to support soil fertility, provides access to fresh water and clean shelters for all weather conditions, and supplements diets with locally sourced forage and minerals.

Visitors often note the docile nature, uniform muscle tone and consistent weight gains across the herd. He emphasizes straightforward breeding practices, transparent communication with fellow farmers and ongoing participation in local agricultural fairs.
