King Ranch (Tully River Station)

King Ranch, a large agricultural corporation based in Texas, USA, established a presence in Australia through its Tully River Station. This station, located near Tully in Queensland, Australia, was primarily focused on cattle production.

King Ranch's involvement in Tully River Station began in the mid-20th century. The company aimed to leverage its expertise in ranching and cattle breeding to develop a successful operation in the Australian environment. The station operated for a number of years, contributing to the local economy through employment and agricultural output.

However, King Ranch eventually divested itself of the Tully River Station. While the exact reasons for the departure are multifaceted and may include economic factors, changing corporate strategies, and environmental considerations, the station no longer operates under the King Ranch banner.
