LOCATIONS — NEW ENGLAND

New England & Northern Tablelands rural finance.

The New England Tablelands is high-country beef and wool country. The tableland between Armidale and Tenterfield carries some of Australia's finest merino and fine-wool flocks. Beef production — particularly prime beef and cow-calf operations — is widespread across the Inverell and Glen Innes districts. The cool climate and reliable rainfall make this one of the more resilient agricultural regions in New South Wales, though altitude and frost exposure shape enterprise choices throughout.
