Balgair or Balgair Station is a pastoral lease the most recently operated as a cattle station but had previously been run as a sheep station. It is located about east of Rawlinna and east of Kambalda on the Nullabor Plain in the Goldfields of Western Australia. The surface land system is described as a ''deflated limestone plain'' which has severe erosion in parts. Balgair is bordered to the south by Arubiddy Station and also shares a border with vacant crown land. The property was established in the mid-1960s when three blocks east of Rawlinna Station became available. Over 32 applicants wanted to settle the blacks that later became known an Balgair, Kybo and Desert Downs.〔 When running sheep it has been stocked with 10,000 head and has a carrying capacity of 17,500. It has good quality underground water with 7 equipped bores and 4 unequipped on undeveloped areas. The property has a homestead, 4-stand shearing shed and drafting yards, and was advertised for 2.1 million.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Balgair Station - Nullarbor grazing )〕 Since at least 2001 Balgair was owned and managed by Mark and Karen Forrester who also operated Kanandah Station. Both properties produce certified organic beef. The area suffered from drought from 202 to 2009, with cattle from Balgair being trucked from the property and agisted further west. ==See also== *List of ranches and stations 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Balgair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
