Subdivided into approximately 43 paddocks all with reticulated water fed to majority 1,500 litre troughs sourced from the 8 units of Albury Water, one unit equals a volume of approximately 1,800 litres per day.

Currently carrying approximately 450 calves, 450 18 month old heifers (supplied as calves), 50 assorted bulls and up to 1,100 cows to be wintered this season for 10 weeks which is the current stocking rate. All supplement and winter feed is grown on the property. Pasture quality and growing summer and winter feed crops have been a strong focus along with a robust fertiliser program. An average rainfall of approximately 740ml on predominately Claremont soils.

Support buildings and infrastructure include a four year old set of cattle yards with a Te Pari crush, two haysheds, implement shed, silo and a three-stand raised board woolshed with the added bonus of a duck pond.
