Cattle and Farming in the Queensland Gulf 2025

Travel across the vast savannah plains of far north Queensland and see firsthand the untold potential that could help Australia become the food bowl of Asia during the forthcoming century. Starting in Townsville and concluding in Cairns, this dynamic fact-finding tour includes a range of visits to some of the best cattle operations and leading irrigated cropping properties in the north of the state. Stay in Charters Towers with its charming historic buildings and rich gold-mining past and visit Richmond with its fascinating Dinosaur Museum.  Up north, there’s free time for relaxing and watching the sun set at Karumba on the Gulf of Carpentaria.  Heading east, visit the fascinating Undara Lava Tubes and stay at Mount Surprise and then travel on to the fertile and productive Atherton Tablelands.  Finally, relax and enjoy time in the tropical city of Cairns – home of the Great Barrier Reef and the World Heritage listed Daintree Rainforest.
