About
Leaders in ranching cattle
Located in Pittsboro, Blanton Farms has over 170 years of experience raising and breeding profitable beef cattle that thrive in one of the harshest environments of the United States.
The Profit PROVEN® American Red and Santa Gertrudis breeds raised on Blanton Farms are efficient, with annual production costs regularly below the industry average and high in yield. Even in drought conditions, mature King Ranch American Red cows have maintained a 90% pregnancy rate with 28% less feed, hay, and mineral expense than other cow-calf operations in the region* while consistently grading 80% or higher USDA Choice+ and Prime.
Blanton Farms is now partnering with other commercial producers in heat-challenged locations on adding American Red cattle and genetics to their herds to help them increase the longevity, fertility, adaptability, efficiency, and profitability of their operations.
