Iron River Wagyu

Iron River Wagyu is a Wagyu cattle breeder in Iron River, Canada AB, in northern Alberta near Edmonton. Ruth Racha brings years of livestock experience, overseeing operations that adhere to recognized breeding standards with routine health testing for every animal.

Calves are raised on open pasture and receive daily handling to foster gentle temperaments and steady development. Yearlings also have access to climate-adapted shelter during harsh weather, ensuring consistent welfare through each season. A balanced feeding program of forage supplemented with grain supports predictable marbling and texture.

The farm’s focus on low-stress husbandry and transparent record keeping has earned positive feedback for animal health and temperament. Detailed records of birth weights, health checks and lineage ensure clarity for buyers and reinforce the breeder’s commitment to quality. Many local buyers note the herd’s sound structure and reliable growth rates during transitions to finishing programs.
