Clonagh Station

Clonagh is a 207,000 hectare cattle breeding station in the southern gulf region of Queensland. Clonagh, located 80km north of the town of Cloncurry, was aggregated from three original properties upon its purchase by Paraway in 2009.

Clonagh runs 19,000 breeding cows, which are control-mated to carefully selected bulls to turn off crossbred weaners.  The property also grows out steers and other non-replacement cattle from other regional Paraway properties. The station is a mix of native land types ranging from open flat country to timbered areas.  It is extensively developed with 50 main grazing paddocks, more than 90 man-made water points and five sets of stock yards.  This facilitates mustering and allows for a flexible range of management options to adapt to conditions.  Mustering is accomplished seasonally by a dedicated team, largely by horseback but also working on motorbikes or by helicopter.

The main homestead complex is well-equipped with staff living, dining and recreation facilities and a school room for the station children.
