J.D. Hudgins-Forgason Cattle Co.

J.D. Hudgins-Forgason Cattle Co. has been raising registered beef-type Brahman cattle in Hungerford, Texas since 1908, making it one of the longest-running Brahman operations in the country. Situated in Wharton County, about 60 miles southwest of Houston, the ranch grew from a family partnership formed by J.D. Hudgins and carries that lineage forward across multiple generations.

Lana Forgason Stanley operates the Forgason Cattle Co. division of J.D. Hudgins, Inc., carrying on the Forgason family's deep roots within the larger ranch. The operation is annually recognized by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association as one of the ten largest purebred producers in the United States.

The ranch's American gray Brahman genetics have shaped the breed on a global scale, with sires contributing to herds worldwide. For cattle producers searching for registered Brahman cattle in Texas, the Forgason division offers bulls rooted in the ranch's foundational bloodlines, including descendants of the legendary herd sire Manso, whose influence is estimated to reach more than 75 percent of all cattle registered with the American Brahman Breeders Association.
