The CSU 498ha farm is principally a grazing property typical of its high altitude, central tablelands environment. The major livestock enterprises are specialist lamb production, Angus stud and commercial production. The farm also has 15ha of irrigated Chardonnay and Shiraz vineyards, producing some of the region's best cool climate wines. These are sold in our brand new cellar door located on the campus. As well as providing a convenient training facility for students, the farm is used by several enterprises for commercial, educational and research purposes.
Our on campus teaching facilities include modern laboratories and state-of-the-art lecture rooms with smart boards and video conferencing facilities, green houses, field teaching and research facilities. The Orange campus staff work closely with the nearby Orange Agriculture Institute, in research and teaching activities. The campus is well equipped with modern facilities including computer facilities in both the Learning Commons and dedicated computer centres which are available to students.
The campus is well positioned to access a wide range of agro-industry businesses, as well as dairy, beef, sheep, cropping and horticultural properties which serve as focal points for students case studies and tours.

Agriculture is facing many new challenges and demands. The way ahead is not the way of the past.
Bottle colour and thickness can reduce white wine spoilage from light, increasing shelf life and maintaining quality
Non-botrytis bunch rots can be managed in the vineyard by well ventilated, but adequate, canopy cover, as well as the spraying of strobilurin type fungicides at flowering.
Micro-oxygenation mimics one of the key aspects of oak maturation, and saves wine makers time and money.
