Country:
"Warratoo's" topography is considered "generally flat" with small areas of slight elevation. Soil type is a consistent grey loam style soil suitable for either winter & summer cearial & forage cropping or pasture production. Original timbers consisted of Belah, Coolibah, Myall, Wilga and Box in the grey loam area with a small area of elevated sandy loam soil with Cypress & Sandalwood. The property benefits from slow and low level flooding at times of major rain events when the nearby Billa Billa creek spreads out. "Warratoo" has undergone a major infrastructure development and pasture improvement programme in the past 10 years. Approximately 1,400 acres of improved pastures have been planted consisting of Creeping Blue, Premier Digit, Reclaimer Rhodes & Bambatsi, that compliment the existing native grasses and herbages in season. The areas of elevated sandy soils carry a good body of Buffel & Green Panic. The introduced pastures are slashed on a seasonal and rotational basis with fertilizer added when needed.
The property has a PMAV locked in.

Cultivation:
Currently there is an area of approx. 111 Ha (274 Ac) planted to oats. The majority of the developed area has been farmed in the past for both forage & grain crops. There are areas still available to develop & farm if desired.

Water:
"Warratoo" is very well watered via a combination of a private owned piped artesian bore backed up by secure stock dams that are surplus to requirements. The bore is piped throughout the entire property in a circular design, giving secure water to all paddocks via 5000gal cup & saucer tanks & concrete troughs. There are numerous dams, all desilted & enlarged in 2019. The homestead is serviced by rainwater, dam water for the garden and bore water if required.

Fencing:
The property is sub-divided into 12 main paddocks all serviced by a central laneway system to the cattle yards supported by holding paddocks & coolers around the yards. Majority of internal fences replaced since 2014 and consist of 4 strand barb, some with electric, new steel post, steel end assembles and steel gate ways. Bull paddocks have clipex netting with electric around them. There is 3km high exclusion fence on the western boundary and a small percentage of original netting boundary fence, all in stock proof condition.
