Langaweira Stud Aims High In Sheep Breeding and Land Care
The Langaweira property, acquired by the Piesse family in 1902, spans 5,300 acres with 3,600 cleared and 1,700 uncleared. Managed by Edmund Piesse since 1921, it doubles as a deep breeding stud with top sires like Glorious Model Gunner Langareen and The Czar from Ilareen, plus multiple lucerne paddocks and substantial wheat planting this year. The estate emphasizes careful land use, high-quality fencing, and substantial feed crops to sustain a large ram population.
