Young farmer Bill Beyrer forges path to top sheep prize

At 19, Bill Beyrer, son of Norval and Beverly Beyrer of Colfax, highlights a rigorous farming life focused on livestock over sports. He owns 100+ registered Suffolk sheep, 19 registered Angus cows, and Holsteins, while managing two farms with his grandfather August Beyrer. He recently earned the Wisconsin Ewe and Ram Production Sale entry and aims to upgrade his flock, return DHIA testing, and expand dairying and beef ventures.
