Austin R Cook

Austin R Cook breeds Hereford cattle in Greenbrier, AR, Faulkner County and Central Arkansas near Little Rock. He has spent more than ten years raising registered Herefords in a family-run operation with careful attention to animal health, participation in national herd health evaluation programs, and regular veterinary check-ups.

Calves are born outdoors on open pasture and receive daily hands-on care to encourage calm temperaments and strong herd bonds. The rolling fields are managed for a mix of grasses and legumes, ensuring steady growth and nutritional balance. Local buyers appreciate the consistent quality of these cattle, noting their adaptability to grass-fed and feed-lot operations alike.

Genetic selection focuses on calving ease and maternal traits, backed by detailed recordkeeping for growth rates and feed efficiency. Each animal undergoes regular hoof trimming and vaccination schedules, and the herd benefits from rotational grazing to protect local waterways.
