Who We Are
Bassett Feeding, Inc. is a commercial feedlot located west of Bassett, Nebraska in the Nebraska Sandhills. The Sandhills are a major ranching area noted for its plentiful grass. In the last 30 years, because of abundant water and center pivot irrigation, it has also developed into a major corn producing region.
Mike Shonsey, a native Nebraskan and fourth generation cattle feeder is president and majority shareholder of the feedlot. Ray Carr, the general manager and part owner came to Bassett in 1989 after managing two large and successful feedlots in western Kansas.
We have been custom feeding and working with ranchers on retained ownership since 1973 and have grown to accommodate 14,000 head. We are here to work hard to give your cattle the extra care they deserve.

IDEAL SIZE
We are big enough to have all the purchasing and technological advantages of the biggest yards, yet small enough to know each customer and give their cattle special attention. Many feeders feel our size is ideal and the most efficient.

DEPENDABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY
We have fed for many of our customers for over 20 years, and they just wouldn't feed with us if we didn't do a competitive job, or we weren't honest and reliable. We are happy to answer any questions and provide references. Our key people and organization are financially sound and well respected. Besides Nebraska, we also feed for customers from several other states including North and South Dakota, Iowa, Wyoming, Montana, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and California.

THE TEAM -- EXPERIENCED! KNOWLEDGEABLE!
We have an experienced and capable team who know their jobs depend on getting results for our customers. In addition, we employ two of the best and most respected consultants in the industry who help us provide our customers the best and most up-to-date feed and health programs available.
