Over 95% of the Stòras Uibhist landholding is under crofting tenure, including most of the 55,000 acres of hill land on the east side of the island of South Uist.

In additional to collecting croft rents, Stòras Uibhist is legally responsible for carrying out the functions and duties of a landowner. These duties are varied and include responsibility for large parts of the land drainage system, deer management, pest control and administration work relating to croft tenancies, assignations and other land management issues.
