Welcome to Arawata Deer Farm

At Arawata Deer Farm we have a proud history in the deer industry, establishing our stud from the best genetics selected from New Zealand and around the world. This has given us great success and in 2001 our stud was the first in New Zealand to produce a two year old that cut over five kilograms of velvet.  At Arawata Deer Farm we believe the proof is in the results. We invite you to take a look at some of our outstanding deer.

About Arawata

Arawata Deer Farm had its beginnings in 1979. Hinds were recorded right from the early days of the stud and stags were sold for the first time in the late eighties with the first on-farm sale in 1991. We're a proudly owned family stud and we take great pride in producing top quality genetics for our clients

Sires/Semen 

For many years we have sought the best bloodlines by buying the best stags and doing extensive AI programmes. This has given sires and stags that have generated real results for our many long term clients. We are constantly investing in new genetics and we invite you to view our line up and latest purchases
