The Cattle Business is Our Business
To understand MRW Cattle Resources, you need to know the people behind the brand. Matt and Erika Woolfolk combine two lifetimes of cattle breeding and industry experience ready to go to work to propel your operation.
Matt grew up in Tennessee as a fifth-generation cattleman and fourth-generation Hereford breeder. He has an academic background in animal breeding and genetics with career stops in breed association work specializing in breed improvement, performance data, and marketing. He currently works for ST Genetics Beef as a Regional Manager in the Midwest, managing a team of sales representatives to grow their business and provide genetic improvement opportunities.
Erika’s family has farmed and raised cattle in Southwest Iowa for over 125 years. She holds two degrees from Iowa State University and works as a regional beef specialist for the Iowa Beef Center of ISU Extension, where she helps cattlemen across Iowa make their operations better.
Matt and Erika were married in May of 2021. Their family has grown to include three children: Lane, Clara, and Gentry. The Woolfolks reside in Adair, Iowa where they run a herd of Hereford and Angus cows in addition to the "real jobs". Not to be forgotten is the MRW team mascot: Gus, the Corgi!
