ENVIRONMENT
Minlacowie and Wingfield Droughtmaster Studs
Are run on two Properties in the beautiful Callide Valley which boasts some of the best farming and grazing land in Central Queensland. Our Breeders run on a very good Softwood/vine Scrub Block outside of Goovigen where we run 10 Single Sire Herds.
Bulls are grown out at Jambin on a Brigalow, Blackbutt, Belah ex farming block which we continue to improve with Leucaena and a good mix of Progardes, Butterfly pea and caatinga Stilo. Progardes is a very good high nitrogen fixing legume which thrives in clay rich soils. It has a very long tap root and is drought tolerant, Highly palatable and non toxic.
