Cody Knoble is from Fillmore, Illinois. He is from a grain and livestock farm where we raise Simmental cattle.
Cody says, “I have had the privilege to show cattle across the country my entire life. I finished up my 4H judging career with a top five finish and being named an All American at Louisville. I attended Lake Land college and was on the livestock judging team there.
After junior college, I transferred to Kansas State University to obtain an Agronomy degree with a minor in Animal Science. While at K State I was on the judging team and a member of the National Champion Meat Animal Eval team. After graduating, I returned home to work as a selling Agronomist while continuing to raise Simmental cattle. I am the assistant coach at Lake Land and have been fortunate enough to sort livestock all across the country. I’m excited to be in Scott City.
