Irongate Wagyu is known across the globe for producing some of the most complete and high performing Wagyu animals. Peter and Lachy Gilmour discuss their family’s journey in Wagyu breeding, emphasising the importance of attention to detail, data use, and genetic improvements. Peter reflects on starting their herd with support from industry leaders, learning about Japanese Wagyu techniques, and scaling their operations using artificial insemination and embryo transfer. Lachy highlights his background in sailing and how he leveraged data in farming, seeing parallels between both industries. Both stress the importance of small improvements, like AI rates and calf survival, in maximizing business outcomes, and they appreciate initiatives like the Australian Wagyu Fellowship for advancing the breed’s future.
