Meyer Farm

Meyer Farm, Dutch belted or Lakenvelder cattle, Fort Loramie, OH, western Ohio near Dayton. Leroy Meyer has been breeding these heritage dairy breeds with attention to health testing and keeps detailed pedigrees.

Meyer Farm maintains a pasture-based system where cattle graze on rotational fields and receive balanced mineral supplements and regular veterinary visits. Calves at the farm join social groups early to promote gentle temperaments and adapt well to family herd environments. With a focus on sustainability, Meyer Farm uses traditional farm methods that support soil health and conserve breed traits.

The farm’s small herd size allows for personalized care and has led to positive feedback on cattle temperament and milk production. Meyer Farm follows guidelines from national cattle associations to maintain welfare and breeding standards. Breeding pairs are selected through careful genetic evaluations of temperament, structural soundness and milk yield potential, ensuring consistency across the herd.
