KENDAL ALDINE HORST

Kendal Aldine Horst specializes in the production and delivery of high-quality forage products for federal land management and wildlife operations, with core capabilities centered on hay farming and livestock feed supply. The contractor provides precisely specified grass hay bales—both 3-string and 6-string rectangular varieties—tailored to the nutritional and logistical needs of wild horse herds and livestock operations on federal lands. Technical expertise includes bale specification compliance, harvest scheduling aligned with seasonal forage cycles, and just-in-time delivery to remote, often rugged terrain such as national forests. Their ability to meet strict bale size, moisture content, and packaging standards demonstrates deep operational precision in agricultural supply chain execution for federal conservation programs. The contractor maintains a consistent relationship with the Department of Agriculture, delivering critical forage resources to support wildlife management initiatives, particularly in federal wild horse corrals and range stabilization efforts. This recurring engagement reflects a trusted, mission-critical role in sustaining ecological balance through targeted feed provision, with work directly supporting the agency’s animal health and land stewardship objectives. Industry focus is narrowly defined by NAICS 111940—Hay Farming—which in practice means cultivating, harvesting, and distributing non-legume grasses under federal contract specifications. The contractor’s market positioning is that of a specialized, location-dependent supplier serving federal land management needs in arid and semi-arid regions, where local forage production is essential for sustainability and reduced transport costs. As a 2J entity based in Alturas, California, Kendal Aldine Horst operates as a small, regionally anchored business with no federal certifications on record. Its geographic presence in northeastern California positions it uniquely to serve USDA operations across the Great Basin and Modoc Plateau, leveraging local agricultural capacity to meet federal forage demands with minimal supply chain complexity.
