Who We Are

In 1910, Andrew Muri homesteaded in the Hallonquist area, and in 1927, he and his son, Sidney, established the Muridale Shorthorn herd by purchasing their first purebred Shorthorns. The Muridale prefix is now owned by Ivan Muri, Sidney's son, and his family. The Muridale operation continues with four generations involved - Ivan, his sons Russell and Scot, grandsons Casey and Tanner, and great-grandsons, who each contribute to the family farm. The Muri family currently manages 150 purebred Shorthorn females, raised in a semi-arid prairie environment with no grain supplementation. Their herd focuses on cattle that thrive on roughage, emphasizing traits like low-maintenance, easy-fleshing, fertility, good udders, and light birth weights, all while adapting to the evolving beef industry.
