Tom Loudermilk

Tom Loudermilk is a Chianina cattle breeder in Wheatland, IN, serving Knox County and southwestern Indiana near Evansville. He has been raising Chianina for over fifteen years and maintains membership in the Indiana Beef Cattle Association. All breeding stock undergoes annual genetic health screenings and distance testing to uphold breed standards.

His herd grazes on rotational pasturelands with access to shaded loafing areas, and newborn calves receive daily handling from weaning onward to encourage gentle temperaments. Raised on a family farm with roots back to the 1930s, Loudermilk follows sustainable grazing methods to support soil health and uniform weight gains.

Local fair judges have praised the muscle definition and structure of his cattle, and several have placed at regional livestock shows. Owners report reliable feed conversion rates and calm dispositions that ease handling. Loudermilk focuses on clear record-keeping for breeding pairs to plan matings that balance size and docility.
