Currently the Buffalo herd in NSW is limited to a few properties scattered over the eastern half of the state. The majority of the animals are of the swamp variety, but some riverine blood is currently being introduced. Marketing of meat and animals is done on an individual producer basis.

Special Requirements
Producers in NSW must hold a licence to keep Buffalo as a requirement of the Non-Indigenous Animals Act. This licence can be obtained from NSW Agriculture based in Orange. Conditions to be met are currently not difficult, but there are some restrictions that limit the sale of live animals. Costs are $50 in the first year and $20 thereafter. A detailed annual stock return must be submitted with each annual licence application.
