LIVESTOCK
SHEEP
In 2022 we introduced Hamshire Down rams into our prime lamb operation.
Genetically the Hampshire Down breed has the highest intra muscular fat ( IMF ) breeding value which directly relates to eating quality.
However having the gene present is half the story, putting in place the nutrition for the animal to express the genetic potential is our focus. Biodiversity of plant species and healthy microbialy active soils are critical to this.
CATTLE
We intend to bring the terms of trade back to the farm and have a meat branded product for commercial sale.
BALALA STATION – BUTCHER BOX has been operating since 2022 selling pork and lamb products – we hope to add beef to our offerings in future.
