Welcome to Bowmont Hereford Stud

Bowmont Hereford Stud is one of the leading whiteface seed stock producers in Australia. We produce industry focussed Hereford and Poll Hereford bulls for both the seed stock and commercial industry. The bulls we sell come from 180 performance recorded cows run under commercial conditions in a 600mm rainfall belt of the Western District of Victoria.

We offer 50+ bulls by on-property auction in February each year. Bowmont genetics can be found in most of the leading Hereford herds in Australia and throughout Ireland and the UK.

Stock and Land - 2015 Beef Week Preview

Sam King of Bowmont Herefords, Tatyoon says moving with the times has helped to make the 36 year-old Western District stud one of the best. He is ready to promote the stud's long list of breeding successes during the 2015 Stock & Land Beef Week, which kicks off on Tuesday, January 27.

The stud's scrupulous breeding program means only the best get through the gates and their direction has been rewarded with some of the top pens of Herefords sporting Bowmont bloodlines at the recent weaner sales. "Commercial viability dictates our breeding direction because, if our commercial clients are not making progress, then neither are we," Mr King said. Bowmont Herefords is one of 224 studs representing breeds involved Beef Week - the nation's biggest on- farm open day.
