A cattle ranch larger than the province of Munster is for sale in Australia.
The Kimberley Cattle Portfolio, which comprises of approximately 2,906,483ha of pastoral lease and sub-lease land, is located in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
Selling agent LAWD Estates described the offering as a “large-scale grazing opportunity” which typically can carry between 45,000 and 50,000 breeding cattle.
The land is currently grazed by a Droughtmaster-cross-Brahman herd, typical for Australian beef production.
The farm finishes all cattle, with facilities on site to continue this enterprise.
Leases
The huge property includes seven pastoral leases (1,828,682ha) and five sub-leases (924,325ha) and is operated as a single large-scale portfolio.
For growing crops and fodder, a further 210ha is developed to centre-pivot irrigation with approval for an additional 294ha. All water supplies are underpinned by 9.5bn litres of groundwater at the property.
The grazing land is well watered by multiple wells, which supply dams, tanks and troughs. The entire portfolio is set within a 350km radius.
LAWD is offering the property to market for sale by expression of interest, closing at 12pm (Australian time) on Thursday 9 November.
