Our farm
Besides hunting, you can experience our farm life.
Cattle Farm
Since over 70 years we are producing slaughter oxen for the European export market.
Young cattle are bought on auctions throughout the country and marketed through our local export abattoir.
Our cattle grow naturally on the field without hormones, antibiotics or other substances.

3 Generations - Our Story
1st Generation
Our grandfather Helmuth Traeger, born on 20th October 1897 in Groß-Hennersdorf (Zittau district, Lusatia), decided to emigrate to Namibia after the First World War as a young soldier and landed in Walvis Bay in 1928 with 5 English pounds in his pocket. He started his own journey, first as a farm manager, then as the owner of a farm store, eventully owning farm "Neu Simmern" on the Elephant River in the South. In 1949, he married our grandmother Elfriede Traeger and in 1950 with they bought our farm "Ombirisu" where they started a life together as a young family.
2nd Generation
Our parents, Konrad und Elisabeth Traeger, started on the farm in 1988 and managed the farm for the last 42 years. Starting only with one farm, they developed . Schwerpunkt war die Rinderspekulation und Produktion von Schlachtochsen für den europäischen Exportmarkt, einer Linie der wir bis heute treu geblieben sind. Leider ist unserer Vater, Henning Konrad Traeger, im Januar 2024 verstorben. Seinen Traum von einem Familienunternehmen setzen wir jetzt fort.
3rd Generation
My wife Nadja and I have been on my parents' farm, Ombirisu, since 2024. Together with my brother Jörn and his wife Julia, we run the cattle farm as a family business, covering over 30,000 hectares. In addition to cattle, we produce firewood and charcoal for the South African and European export markets. We have now realized my childhood dream of establishing a hunting farm, and since 2025 we have been welcoming hunting guests from Europe.
