Herefords were chosen to build the Stud – an easy choice considering the advantages they offer:

• Adaptable to a variety of Australian conditions.

• Ability to finish well on grass.

• Fantastic temperament.

Right from the outset the aim was to produce the best Hereford cattle possible. Some things have changed since then, but our philosophy has not.

The Stud operates with 200 Hereford and Poll Hereford breeders – large enough to increase genetic gain, yet small enough to produce the optimum genetic package.

We embrace performance and technology to aid our selection decisions, however we feel that phenotype and structural integrity should not be overlooked. We have been using Breedplan since 1990, and in recent times, the use of genomics in our herd.

Alvio, daughter Alicia, and a passionate team are focused on breeding functional cattle that fulfill the many demands of today’s markets. Andrew Green, our Stud Manager, brings a wealth of cattle breeding, and overall management experience, being in the Stud Beef industry all his life. Beau Kriewaldt has been an integral part of our program for the past 15 years, dealing with bushfires, drought and even some green grass.

The Annual Bull Sale is the perfect time to secure Glendan Park genetics. It is usually held on the last Friday in February. 

We pride ourselves on giving great customer service and importantly, building strong relationships with our new and existing clients.

In 2024 Glendan Park has purchased the Adameluca Angus herd as a whole, including their Kyneton South property. This is an addition to the existing Hereford herd, which we remain very committed to and passionate about.

We thank Sam and his family for this opportunity. 11 years of hard work, dedication and investment in quality genetics have gone into building the Adameluca herd to what it is today.
Barry Godbolt and wife Joy has joined the Glendan Park team as Angus Manager, working alongside our existing team: Andrew Green (Hereford Manager) and Beau Kriewaldt.

Alvio, Alicia and the GP team are all very excited to be embarking on this new journey. It is business as usual at Glendan Park, and we are looking forward to the future of our program now including the Angus breed.
