PROPERTY UTILISATION
Bucheen Creek was originally a dairy property but has been for many years been converted to a beef grazing property. Current ownership has concentrated on pasture improvement and have over their tenure of the property sustained a breeding herd of 150 cows with followers. Further pasture improvement on the 1000mm rainfall district will allow for a further increase in numbers. Although traditionally a cattle breeding enterprise, the property would seem ideal for a backgrounding or value adding program. The subdivision, the water and the facilities would all support such programs.
