Droughtmaster Cattle

The Samari Group, with a long-term vision of investing in the beef industry, has made substantial investments in the Droughtmaster breed. This investment spans across both stud level and a large-scale commercial breeding operation.

Our partners, Glenlands Australia, Considerata SA, and HC Pastoral, are third and fourth-generation farmers with a rich farming legacy dating back to the 1800s.

The Droughtmaster Breed originates from Queensland, Australia, the Droughtmaster breed of beef cattle is specifically developed to thrive in harsh and variable environments. The breed is highly valued for its:

  • Resistance to parasites and diseases
  • Heat tolerance
  • Ability to flourish in dry areas with limited food and water
  • Capacity to produce high-quality beef in challenging circumstances
  • The Droughtmaster combines all the functional and economical traits desired by Australian and African beef producers who prefer cattle developed from the Indicus mother line.


As Samari Droughtmaster, we are not just investing in the beef industry, with the Droughtmaster breed it allows for Ethically produced Environmentally Sustainable high value protein, which is in line with Samari’s core beliefs.
