A smarter way to dairy farm!
A compelling opportunity to secure 100 hectares (more or less) across three titles, offering flexibility, established production and options for the future. Currently milking approximately 270 cows, with calves grazed on farm and production levels up to 105,000kgMS, this versatile property presents an attractive entry into dairy farming or a valuable addition to an existing rural portfolio.
Predominantly flat contour with fertile soils, maintained through fertiliser applications guided by soil testing, provide a sound foundation for continued production. At the heart of the operation is a former 22-aside cowshed reconfigured to accommodate four Lely robotic milking stalls, each incorporating automatic meal feeding. This modern technology in conjunction with Halter, offers the potential to improve labour efficiency, provide greater flexibility in herd management and establish consistent milking routines.
Supporting infrastructure includes a cowshed, covered and uncovered cow yards, a compliant effluent system, quality bore water and a usual range of farm buildings to cover calf rearing, general storage and housing the farm tractor and implements. The original milking pit and much of the cowshed pipework remain intact, giving a future purchaser the flexibility to retain the robotic milking system or investigate a return to conventional milking.
A four-bedroom family sized brick home with detached double garaging completes the package. Conveniently positioned approximately 15 minutes from both Matamata and Te Aroha, the property also offers easy access to the wider region, with Hamilton and Tauranga within a comfortable commute.
With the vendors committed to their next move, this is an opportunity to consider a range of farming possibilities. Whether you are looking to step onto the farming ladder or expand an existing portfolio, where you continue dairying with the option of embracing robotic milking technology or secure valuable dairy support land, a versatile holding with value firmly in focus.
Please note: OPEN DAY - The robotic milkers will not be operational during the Open Day to facilitate unrestricted access for property viewings across the farm.
