Hay, grain and
livestock feed.
Reliable bulk supply for Australian livestock producers and international fodder customers—from our farms in the NSW Riverina.
A family-owned, integrated
7,700-hectare operation.
Brothers Adam and Peter Gardiner founded Gardiner Bros Farms in 2011, building on a family background in hay growing and contracting. Based at Caldwell, west of Deniliquin, the business now combines large-scale farming with feed production and export-hay processing.
Today, 15 permanent staff—supported by casual and seasonal teams—work across dryland and irrigated cropping, grain production, haymaking, processing, transport and storage.
Adam and Peter remain closely involved from paddock preparation and crop production through to processing and delivery. That whole-of-chain approach is central to the consistency supplied to customers in Australia and overseas.

Feed products built around
consistency.
We grow and source quality fibre and grain, then store, process and supply it in the form your operation needs. Talk directly with the people who produce it.
Oaten & cereal hay
Consistent fibre grown, conditioned, baled and stored with quality under our control.
Whole grain
Barley, maize and available grains supplied direct from our farming operation.
Mixed feed
Standard and custom grain blends matched to your feeding program.
Export hay & straw
Processed and containerised through our Phoenix Hay export pathway.
16,000 tonnes of
storage capacity.
Our grain operation is supported by 6,000 tonnes of sealed silo storage and a further 10,000 tonnes of bunker storage. This capacity gives us greater control over segregation, quality and timing—supporting dependable whole-grain, rolled-grain and mixed-feed supply.
Reliable maize and
grain production.
Across the operation, approximately 1,000 hectares are serviced by lateral-move spray irrigation, supporting consistent maize and grain production through the growing season. That production feeds directly into our whole-grain, rolled-grain and mixed-feed supply for livestock customers.

Control at every stage.
Our haymaking and export process is built around protecting feed quality, minimising contamination and moving more product efficiently.
Cut & condition
Mower-conditioners crimp the stems to promote faster, more even drying and help preserve colour, leaf and feed quality.
Clean raking
We use Berrima roller-bar rakes to form even windrows while minimising soil, stones and other foreign-material contamination.
High-density baling
Krone eight-string high-density balers produce firm, consistent bales with better weights and more efficient truck and container loading.
Protected storage
Approximately 30,000 bales of on-farm storage help protect quality and maintain dependable supply beyond the baling window.
Process & pack
Export fodder is compressed into uniform packs, securely strapped and wrapped for efficient international handling.
Protected finished product
Compressed export packs are held under cover and kept ready for efficient international handling.
From our storage to your
operation.
Our production scale, protected storage and transport capability help livestock businesses secure dependable supply through the season. We work with dairy, beef, sheep and feedlot customers on spot purchases, forward supply and regular delivery programs.
