The Huyser Family – M&M Feeders, Nebraska – His will, their work

For the Huyser family, it’s not just about keeping a business in the black. It’s about building a life, one they can share together now and pass down later.

The family business now includes two feedyards, with Daron Huyser managing operations at Lexington, Neb., and his sister Jamie tackling the daily tasks at Elm Creek. Their father Mel does everything from keeping up customer relations to driving the feed truck, while uncle Marvin handles commodity trading from his home in Idaho.

“We’ve got that family touch. It’s somebody in the family feeding the cattle, taking care of the cattle day-to-day,” Daron says. “We don’t have to sit and look off a computer and tell you exactly whose cattle they are. We know what the cattle are. We have relationships, we talk with the people weekly.”

This is their story, part four of the mini-documentary series, “A Rare Breed: Legacies of Excellence.”
