AUCTION - 11am (VIC time) Friday 20th June 2025 at Border Inn Hotel, Apsley
491.30 ha/ 1,214.01 acres
The West Wimmera is highly regarded as a mixed farming region with the ability to produce and finish prime lambs.
Prime lamb, wool, hay and some cattle grazing has been traditionally farmed over the past years and as the decades have passed. In recent times we have witnessed grazing country developed into conversional cropping with successful and continuous cropping growing cereals, oils seeds and legumes year in year out.
Typical of the area are the large majestic red gum trees, yellow gum to bull oak trees. Soil types range from heavy dark to grey clays to heavy loams.
Blores is known as a solid "GOOD SOILD BLOCK" with gentle undulation allowing water to pass and move through the natural landscape over winter months and assisted with drainage over some paddocks. The lower lying landscape with heavier soil types are more suited for grazing, growing an abundance of pastures and clover over spring to early summer period.
