Automated watering system to troughs in each paddock. This is the perfect set up for stud breeding or agistment and is ideally configured for efficient stock rotation.

Comprising highly productive well-drained red loam soils. Highly suited to all produce varieties including lucerne, clover, and all other improved pasture types.

Original 40m x 20m sand-based undercover arena with a height of 5.4m and LED lighting. Cleverly planned for 24-hour use, and a wide variety of potential uses which could include sheltered animal husbandry practices, equine dressage, and on-farm shows and sales.
