Animal Husbandry

Livestock production and management is one of the largest offerings to rural-holdings in the Adelaide Hills. Our team will work with you to develop balanced pasture maintenance programmes with associated livestock rotation and feed despatch systems. We look to help minimise impacts on the pastures, as well as the animals, especially during pregnancy and lactation periods where feed is vital.

We can also explore intermediary supplemental feed with you where your pasture requires renovation or extended irrigation periods, most importantly to ensure appropriate livestock nutrition.

Our team will also work with you to undertake regular animal health checks to guarantee positive nutrition and wellbeing.

Whether it’s a holiday or a business trip that takes you away from the property, we’ve got you covered. For properties of all sizes, we offer farm sitting services to make sure you have peace of mind that the property and its animals are well-cared for.

With our knowledge and expertise in the field, we tailor our farm sitting programmes to suit the needs of your property and livestock. Whatever needs checking, feeding, watering or rotating, we are there to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Where we find any livestock that need attention, we have the provisions to nurse or vaccinate the animal on-site. Our livestock management practices are designed to minimise adverse health impacts, and promote a healthy growth stimulus amongst any juvenile herds.

Our team also work to schedule precautionary vaccination cycles to assist in the healthcare management of your livestock. We also have veterinary contacts to ensure convenient access to specialist instruction wherever it may be required.

One of the vital needs for pastoral care and livestock management is water access. A field without water is not a viable field for livestock grazing.

Our team are happy to help with the installation or repairs of water points on your property, and can conduct regular checks to ensure the safety and health of your animals.
