Looking at doing something a little bit different, anyone out there got any incite on the via-ability on either a Red Claw Farm or permanent management rights.

Hi bbb looked at it a few years ago but the main problem was they are susceptible to chemicals and I was going do it near my mango plantation. So had to give it a miss as I spray insecticide regularly.

There are some good agg notes on the subject in the Gov website.

Thanks Grumpy, looking at a property in North Queesland that is already set up with 40 odd dams.Current owner is quoting figures that I think are a little bit inflated, but I will continue to look into it.Phill

The only redclaw farm i know of up here is down the road from my mums, in Lambells Lagoon. It was good cause during a flood i would throw the net outside his property where there was a little drain. Caught ridiculous amounts of yabbies, Im not sure if he still operates but i heard a while back that he was selling up the block.

There is a Red Claw farm on the market up there. I seen it advertised about a month ago.
I think it is on the Darwin River. $650,000.

Personally I would try and farm Cherabin.
