Doug Bland

Doug Bland, Wagyu cattle breeder in Solsberry, IN, serves Greene County and southern Indiana near Bloomington. He has been raising Wagyu cattle for several years under American Wagyu Association guidelines, with routine health testing and pedigree tracking.

His herd grazes on rotational pastures and calves are handled gently from birth to foster early trust and socialization. Blandland Wagyu emphasizes soil health and natural forage in a low-stress environment, seeking to balance animal welfare with practical breeding practices and sustainable herd development goals.

The operation includes sheltered loafing areas and clean water sources throughout the farm, reflecting a focus on daily welfare and long-term herd health. Cattle trace back to foundation stock known for marbling and resilience, supporting consistent meat quality and herd vitality. Regional farmers and chefs often visit the farm to learn about breeding practices and observe the herd in its natural environment. Equipment and facilities are regularly updated to ensure comfort and biosecurity remain top priorities.
