ILS is a Farming and Feedlot operation that focuses on growing great tasting and sustainable beef.

The relationship dates back to 1988 when Ward Feed Yard and Great Bend Feeding chose to work together and face the challenges of marketing cattle in central KS. This challenge was turned into opportunity and the mindset to face adversity head on by; identifying the problem, designing a solution, and implementing positive. These values still hold true today and the foundation of ILS is built on integrity, trust, relationships, personal development, respect, teamwork, innovation, and accountability. Our mission today is to combine innovation with the passion of our people to empower our rural communities and grow great tasting and sustainable beef. Our employees are dedicated to what they do, bringing a level of personal accountability and passion to every-day activities. Their focus on management production, sound business practices, and commitment to customers and consumers is driven by our desire to be the best. We have high standards to provide safe and abundant food for your family. By teaming up with companies such as Ag Systems, Alfalfa Pellets, Agri Fuels, and GK Environmental Services, we ensure our environmental and business sustainability. We have a symbiotic relationship between our farm and feed yards which allow us to utilize a closed-loop nutrient cycle. The crops grown on our farm provide high-quality nutrients for the healthy growth of our cattle fed in the feed yards. The composted manure from our feed yards is then applied to our farm to supply our crops with the nutrients they need. We strive to match the exact needs of the growing plants by delivering the nutrients at the precise time, amount, and location.
