ECP Cattle

For five generations, the Propp family has been dedicated to raising cattle in Northeast Oklahoma. Located just 45 minutes from Tulsa, our ECP Cattle herd is built on strong production and phenotypical genetics, practical cow families and a commitment to building cattle that work in both the show ring and the pasture. Year round we offer a wide selection of females, bulls and show prospects to suit a variety of needs.

Outside of the cattle operation, Ethan is one of two agricultural education instructors at Locust Grove Public Schools in Locust Grove, OK. Prior to that position, he served as the livestock judging team coach and the introduction to animal sciences lab coordinator at the University of Florida in Gainesville, FL.

Ethan received his animal science bachelor’s degree from Oklahoma State University and his associate’s degree from Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. Collegiately he was a member of both the horse and the livestock judging team at both institutions.

OCA 2025-2026 CLA Program

Ethan Propp was selected as a member of the 32nd class of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Leadership Academy

The OCA Cattlemen’s Leadership Academy (CLA) is targeted for beef producers ages 25 – 40. The program is designed to develop young members through industry exposure, education and communication. CLA consists of a series of four seminars designed to expose participants to leaders from all segments of the industry, including: purebred, cow-calf, backgrounding, dairy, feeding, processing, retail, foodservice, animal health, marketing, finance, etc. Essential to the overall program are industry issues sessions and business/financial management training. The seminars will provide participants the opportunity to further explore our business, gain essential information and network with fellow OCA members. Each year 20 OCA member/beef producers are selected through an online application process to participate. There is very minimal cost to participate; meals and lodging are covered by CLA Sponsors. This is an excellent opportunity to become a more informed and prepared future leader of the cattle industry. The CLA year runs from July to July. If you would like to learn more about the program, call the OCA Office at 405-235-4391.

Charolais Cattle in Oklahoma

Since 2015, our purebred Charolais herd has grown into the heart of our seedstock program. We’ve invested in elite donors from some of the best breeders and cow families nationwide, building a foundation of females with proven performance and eye appeal. Today, our Charolais cattle are going to help build herds across Oklahoma and beyond, whether as competitive show prospects, productive females or herd bulls that add muscle, growth and profitable production.

Commercial SimAngus in Oklahoma

Our commercial SimAngus cows are built on decades of our very own Propp family genetics. We select for fertility, maternal ability and production efficiency. Most of our herd fall calves, and we occasionally offer replacement females and bulls that fit commercial cattlemen’s needs throughout the year. These cattle are bred for the ever fluctuating Oklahoma environment while maintaining the balance of longevity and productive performance that ECP Cattle proudly stands for and expects from all of our animals.
