178-hectare dairy

This 178-hectares (subject to survey) of flat, dairy land presents an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to make their mark and elevate the property to the next level. Currently run as two separate dairies over 260-hectares, there has been some adjustments with some areas being subdivided off.

The 36-aside dairy shed on 106-hectares (more or less) is well located and has a new 450 cow yard with very good support buildings adjacent. The dairy could very easily accommodate an in shed meal feeding system. It has water chill and a 16,000-litre milk silo (Fonterra owned), two large water heaters, colostrum vat with chiller unit, Maxi teat sprayer and an industrial plate cooler. The farm is on town water with two 30,000 litre tanks at the dairy and a large Grundfos pump pumping around the farm. A good race system to approximately 68 paddocks, with mostly two and three wire electric fencing with troughs in all paddocks. This farm has two homes with the main having 4-bedrooms and ample garaging. The second is an older 3-bedroom weatherboard.

The second dairy unit of 72-hectares (subject to survey) has a 28-aside dairy shed, lined effluent pond, town water, an older home with an outside room and a number of support buildings.

The property could very easily be made into a 178-hectare dairy with a connecting race and some adjustments. The purchaser of the property will be eligible to have preferential access to chicken fertiliser on a secure, long-term basis if desired.

The opportunity here with some work and imagination could result in a quality unit in a good location. Well worth inspection.
