The Society offers four different categories of membership, each having various degrees of
involvement.
STUD MEMBERSHIP is offered to those who wish to participate in stud breeding, involving
pedigree recording. All registered females over 20 months of age as at 1st April of any year are
charged a per head inventory fee. You will be eligible to sell stock at Society Sponsored Sales,
be a member of Droughtmaster Group Breedplan, and vote at Society meetings.
COMMERCIAL MEMBERSHIP is available to those who do not wish to be concerned with
paperwork but who wish to have their herd officially recognised as being Droughtmaster.
Commercial membership will enable you to be on the Society database when orders for cattle
come in, vote at Society meetings and be involved in the various events held throughout the
year. Commercial members cannot sell stock at Society Sponsored Sales. Commercial Members
can qualify for Accredited Commercial Herd status.
Animals in Commercial Herds are not eligible to be registered.
ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP is available to those interested people who wish to maintain a
contact with the Society and the Breed.
JUNIOR MEMBERSHIP is available to under 21 year olds.

herds which have been breeding high quality purebred Droughtmasters for a number of years.
