New Holland is starting a beef seedstock herd on its company farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, after buying 12 cows from an Angus operation last spring. Eleven calves have since been born.

A small private herd has negligible effect on cattle supply or prices, though packer closures and tight feedlot conditions are a background pressure on feeder cattle markets.
