Pastoral Leases are agreements under the Commonwealth of Australia that allow for the use of Crown land by farmers, etc. The leases constitute an Australian land apportionment system created in the mid-nineteenth century to facilitate the orderly division and sale of land to indigenous Australians and European colonists.
There are also leases within state jurisdictions.
