“Peep-O-Day” is a blue-ribbon agricultural property nestled in the heart of New South Wales’ Central West, at Tottenham, spanning a remarkable 3,812.17 hectares (9,420 acres). Owned by the Andrews family since 1996, the property has been managed meticulously under the stewardship of Dr. Colin Andrews, a retired neurologist from Canberra. Dr. Andrews, who grew up in Tottenham, holds a deep personal connection to the land, making “Peep-O-Day” a significant part of his legacy.

The property is divided into 12 paddocks—eight designated for rotational cropping and four for seasonal cropping, primarily for livestock production. The rotational cropping system includes cereals, lupins, canola, and fallowing, while seasonal oats are planted strategically to enhance cattle feed supply.

“Peep-O-Day” places a strong emphasis on soil fertility, maintaining balanced nutrient levels through the consistent application of 70 kg/ha of MAP equivalent phosphorus. Regular soil testing ensures the careful management of potassium and sulfur levels, supporting healthy, productive crops. The property also incorporates break crops such as monola and lupins, which not only enhance nitrogen levels but also improve soil structure and contribute to long-term soil health.

The infrastructure on “Peep-O-Day” is robust and designed for operational efficiency. With a grain storage capacity of 1,900 tonnes, the property is well-equipped to handle and store its harvests. Additional facilities include multiple spray water filling stations, silo bag pads, machinery and workshop sheds, a hay shed, and a centrally located cattle yard with a capacity for 200 head, ensuring smooth operations throughout the year.

The land itself boasts varied soil types, ranging from grey self-mulching clays to soft red clay loams, making it ideally suited for both cropping and lucerne pasture. Over the years, “Peep-O-Day” has consistently delivered impressive yields, including an average wheat yield of 2.85 tonnes per hectare. The property also excels in water use efficiency (WUE), with an average of 17 kg/mm of Growing Season Rainfall (GSR) over the past decade—well above the regional average of 14 kg/mm for wheat in the area.

In sum, “Peep-O-Day” is regarded as one of the most prestigious cropping portfolios in the Lachlan/Bogan Shires. A model of sustainable farming, it strikes a careful balance between soil health, crop rotation, and infrastructure investment to drive long-term productivity and success.
