La Rucia Ranch

On April 2, 1981 La Rucia Ranch Company was formed with the intent of pursuing a holistic approach to the protection, preservation and improvement of the land for the benefit of wildlife, cattle and family. This company has been operated consistently by the family, now with fifth generation management, to the present. In the first few years 70 mile... s of fences, a metal barn, and a central set of pipe cattle corrals were constructed. Since then many improvements may be seen in wildlife waterings, pens, roads, electricity, bunk houses, storage buildings and family homes. The mission of La Rucia Ranch Co. is sustainable profitability through business practices that are ecologically and economically sound. The ranch company strives towards efficiently producing the best commercial beef, trophy native deer hunts and other wildlife that South Texas has to offer. The emphasis is on a holistic approach to land management to insure that the preservation of the natural beauty and rugged spirit of the Wild Horse Desert will thrive within the gates of La Rucia Ranch.Read More
