The central and western regions of Victoria were rapidly populated in the years following Major Mitchell's explorations of the area in 1836. By 1859 the area had its own agricultural society in the Western District Pastoral and Agricultural Society. In 1873 this Society merged with the Ballarat Pastoral and Agricultural Society from the neighbouring district.
