Bison Herd Grows as Kansas Ranch Builds Profit
Richard Duff and his wife Sue run a bison herd near Scott City, Kansas, now over 300 head with plans to reach 400. The venture links Native American land history and lean red meat, growing after a 1990s price lull when meat markets lagged despite rising calf numbers. Duff recalls early snowbound calves and the herd’s adaptation to the plains.
