This high producing dairy farm is an easily managed one man unit with excellent infrastructure in a great location.
This 75.03 hectare (more or less) dairy farm provides a great opportunity for the new owner to move straight in and start farming with its consistent production history, Variation 6 compliance for up to 250 cows, FEP in place and compliant effluent system. 2017/2018 production was 116,217 kg/ms milking 228 cows. The last three year’s average production is 113,620 kg/ms. Milking platform is 72 effective hectares. The farm is half a kilometre from the Putaruru town boundary and is on prime dairy land as reflected in the above average production history. Farm improvements include a 20 aside herringbone dairy shed featuring automatic cup removers and an in-shed meal feeding system. Support buildings include a new 30 tonne PKE dry store bunker, large calf shed, four bay implement shed, storage shed and half round barn. A rhyolite quarry provides material for the races. The main sheds and dwelling are centrally located on the farm. Races are tidy with good subdivision of paddocks. Effluent is gravity fed to a compliant pond then irrigated to around 15 hectares. Stock water is from a bore source and there is an in-line dispenser. Water lines comprise 32mm mains and 20 to 25mm laterals. There’s a good fertiliser history and the soils are known as Tirau Ash. The four bedroom insulated brick home has a double, internal access garage with office. The garden is well fenced and the mature trees provide an enjoyable setting.
