Property Management

Baderloo Property

Baderloo is situated 22km south of Jamestown in the Mid North of South Australia.
The area is a reliable mixed farming district, which receives an average of 450mm of predominately winter rain a year.
Our property is in four lots totalling 800ha with strong hills grazing and a balance of arable land. We are fortunate to have a further 1200ha of grazing from two other neighbouring properties mainly for their summer stubbles. This enables us to spell the hills during summer while the sheep graze through the stubbles before returning to lamb once the season breaks in April.
We only supplementary feed grain once the stubbles are exhausted and to maintain ewes in good order once joined.
Our lambs are weaned onto clean pastures and young rams get the run of a standing oats crop.
