Lancaster Farming Dairy Family Builds on 117 Acre Farm

Ranch dairyman Harry H Ranck tops butterfat with Holsteins

Too selective breeding and harsh culling narrowed the herd at Ranck Ranch. Harry H Ranck has led Red Rose DHIA in butterfat production for two years, and he characterizes his work as providing a boarding house for Holstein stock. He recalls an accidental origin when his father bought the foundation herd and kept an excellent bull.
