Humpty Doo, Rural administrative division in Litchfield Municipality, Northern Territory, Australia.

Humpty Doo extends across 40 kilometers east of Darwin, featuring residential neighborhoods intermingled with agricultural properties and natural landscapes.

The Territory Rice Limited company established extensive rice cultivation projects in 1954, which encountered multiple agricultural challenges and ultimately ceased operations by 1959.

The Djerimanga people maintain their traditional connection to this land, where European settlement began during the Northern Territory gold discoveries of the 1800s.

The town provides essential services including Taminmin College, multiple schools, shops, and a bus interchange that connects residents to Darwin and Palmerston.

Located between Darwin and Kakadu National Park, this settlement experienced a failed agricultural experiment involving rice fields invaded by wild buffaloes.
