Why it's listed
Grasslands Wagyu is an operating ranch and retail storefront in Blanchard, Oklahoma. Its site says the owner developed the herd using named Takeda and Tajima bloodlines and offers beef plus genetics from its sires. However, it does not state a fullblood, purebred, or crossbred percentage for the cattle supplying its commercial beef. Because that percentage is not published, WagyuSpot cannot verify a fullblood, purebred, or F1 claim. Its physical storefront and direct sales are documented.
Genetics first, with a shop attached
Grasslands is a ranch and retail storefront near Blanchard, Oklahoma, whose main business is elite Wagyu genetics. It names its bloodlines specifically, citing Takeda and Tajima lines, and sells semen to other breeders alongside beef by the whole and half animal, plus snack sticks, jerky and sausage from its own store.
Naming bloodlines is a real disclosure and a fairly rare one. Takeda refers to the herd of a well-known Japanese breeder whose genetics reached the United States; Tajima is the Hyogo strain associated with the finest marbling. A ranch that names them is telling you what it selected for.
A named bloodline is not a breed percentage
This listing carries no breed badge, and the reason is a distinction worth carrying to every other producer you look at. The site names its bloodlines and does not state what percentage Wagyu the cattle behind its commercial beef actually are: no fullblood, no purebred, no F1, no number.
Those are different facts and one does not imply the other. A bloodline says which ancestors were selected; a percentage says how much of the animal in front of you descends from them. A herd built on Takeda and Tajima genetics can be fullblood, and it can equally be a cross carrying those lines on one side. Both are legitimate products and they are not the same purchase.
This directory inferred fullblood here once, from the named bloodlines and from registered sires, and corrected it. Registered sires establish the sire; they do not establish the dam. If the percentage matters to you, the bloodline name is not the answer and the ranch can give you the real one.

Common questions
- Is Grasslands Wagyu beef fullblood?
- Not stated. The ranch names its bloodlines, citing Takeda and Tajima genetics, but publishes no breed percentage for the cattle behind its commercial beef. A named bloodline describes which ancestors were selected, not how much of the animal descends from them.
- What are Takeda and Tajima lines?
- Tajima is the Hyogo strain of Japanese Black associated with the finest marbling and the line Kobe descends from. Takeda refers to a well-known Japanese breeder whose genetics reached the United States. Both are meaningful selections and neither states a breed percentage.
