stud farms
Stallion breeding grounds
A stud farm is a property where horses or other animals are bred, particularly for racing, show, or sale.
The term emphasizes the keeping of studs—male animals used for breeding—though mares and offspring are also housed there.
Thoroughbred stud farms are especially prominent in horse racing regions like Kentucky and Ireland.
The champion was retired to a stud farm after his racing career.
