Comprising 637 hectares (1,573 acres) of extremely picturesque, principally range country, Karoo has historically been recognised for its beef cattle production, wool growing and rural lifestyle benefits. Under the current ownership Karoo is operated as a low input cattle breeding operation in parallel with selective harvesting of native timber species under Private Native Forestry license.
