About

We're Erdmann Angus Ranch, a family owned and operated Angus Seedstock Operation Located near Lisbon, ND. We focus on performance, maternal traits, and phentoype.

Our Story

Erdmann Angus Ranch is a first generation ranch started in 1998 when Jeremy bought his first 12 commercial Angus cows purchased from Gary Johnson of Steele, ND. Having grown up around and worked for many influential seed-stock cattle producers in our area this ignited a spark and passion for Jeremy to build his own herd. In 1999 Jeremy purchased the first registered Angus Cows from Joe Schaff, St. Anthony, ND. Stacy grew up as the 4th generation on her parents 200 head commercial Angus farm not too many miles away from where we live now, with the enthusiasm to continue not only living in this lifestyle but also with a dedication to educate others about Agriculture and to help other Farmers and Ranchers do the same. Today Jeremy and Stacy along with their daughters Rylee & Kaylee own and co-own (Ray Haugen, Valley City ND) 100 head of registered Angus cows and operate on 450 acres, of mostly rented pasture and cropland. From the ground up we work hard to build a dream started all on our own. Jeremy is also employed as a Salesman with RDO Equipment in Lisbon, ND and Stacy is employed with Cropland Insurance Services as a Crop Insurance Agent. We realize now that we may not be able to accomplish all that we want too here on earth, and that living this life to the best of our abilities is raising our children, the next generation, to carry on the values and beliefs of our family's life through Agriculture. To us it is about building a legacy that will stand the test of time.

Production Sale

Early on cattle were sold privately. In 2005, Jeremy started offering yearling bulls on a joint-production sale with Craig & Heather Burchill, Page, ND. In 2009 we went back to selling cattle privately as we wanted to ensure that with the size of our herd we were offering only the best quality bulls our customers deserved. However, hosting a local, annual production sale was always the goal. In 2010, we were contacted by Simmental cattle producer, Julie Elijah-Barker of Elijah Ranch and another Angus producer, Dale Sprunk of Sprunk Angus, and in collaboration with their families and their cattle we hosted the first Dakota Classic Sale. It was a piece of history in and of itself as our Sale Barn is located on the Ransom County Fairgrounds Beef Barn, which was in it's glory days of the mid-1900s, the local auction barn! The feeling and effect this old barn has on our sale day is definitely one that is fun to experience! In 2014, we went to a straight Purebred Angus Production Sale with Dale & Dana Sprunk and from there the rest is history.
