“With clear upside for further irrigation expansion and pasture enhancement, ‘Strathmore’ presents a rare opportunity for further development and increased production,” says selling agent Peter Turich of Kellco Rural Agencies.
Strategically positioned 98km north-east of Dalby, 70km north-west of Kingaroy and 170km north-west of Toowoomba, the property comprises approximately 2,416.38 hectares (5,971 acres) of freehold land featuring an excellent balance of native grasses, improved pastures and legumes, contributing to groundcover stability, drought tolerance and long-term pasture sustainability.

On top of around 65 acres of dryland forage sorghum, ‘Strathmore’ features a centre pivot-irrigated area based on a perennial pasture system incorporating Rhodes grass, lucerne, white clover and chicory. For the current summer season, this area has been strategically oversown with a multi-species forage blend comprising forage sorghum, millet, sunflower, sun hemp, lab lab and forage brassicas to increase total dry matter production and provide flexibility for intensive grazing or finishing operations.
All up, the property delivers an estimated carrying capacity of approximately 570 cows and calves, complemented by an additional 350 Adult Equivalents year-round under centre pivot irrigation, providing scale, consistency and production flexibility.

Underpinning its high productivity, ‘Strathmore’ benefits from abundant, secure water. The property is situated in a reliable rainfall zone with an average annual rainfall of approximately 680mm (around 27 inches), providing a solid natural foundation for pasture production and complementing the property’s irrigation and water security to support consistent, year-round carrying capacity.
An unmetered bore delivers 25,000 gallons per hour to the 54-hectare, seven-span Valley centre pivot system, delivering reliable irrigation capacity to improved pasture and forage areas. All paddocks are serviced by a reticulated, solar-powered stock watering system, with water distributed throughout the property via poly pipeline, pumping approximately 1,700 gallons per hour to central storage tanks.

An additional bore located at the homestead supplies the residential complex and surrounding paddocks, pumping an estimated 800 gallons per hour.
