OUR STORY

Welcome to Conapaira Pastoral

Conapaira Pastoral is home to a Dorper, White Dorper & White Suffolk stud, commercial wool and cropping enterprise in the small town of Rankins Springs.

Run by third and fourth generation farmers, Peter & Julie together with Tom & Megan Groat have been providing quality White Suffolk rams since 2003 with the first purchase of stud ewes from St Pauls College where Tom went to school.

Since then, the business has expanded to include Dorpers, investing in Amarula Dorper genetics in 2017, and White Dorpers in 2019 with ewes from Salt Bush White Dorpers in SA.

Today, the Groat family manage 9,500 hectares with the help of a small team and their three budding farmers, Dusty, Storm and River. Their aim is to provide farmers with top quality genetics guaranteed to perform and survive in any climate in both Australia and abroad.
