Nick Cragen

Nick Cragen is a Hereford cattle breeder in Martinsville, IN, serving Morgan County and central Indiana near Indianapolis. With more than ten years of experience, he maintains full registry with the American Hereford Association and conducts routine health screening including eye exams and genetic tests.

His cows and calves graze on open pastures under a rotational grazing system, and each animal is introduced to hands-on socialization from an early age. Several of his cattle have placed at the state fair, and local farmers often note the herd’s steady disposition and consistent growth rates. He operates from a family farm that blends traditional husbandry with modern welfare standards, aiming to provide healthy, well-adjusted animals for neighboring farms.

Breeding decisions focus on structural soundness and maternal traits to support long-term herd productivity. Farm practices include soil conservation measures and locally sourced feed to sustain a balanced cycle through each animal’s life stages.
