This 50.3935 hectare property was returned to dairy in 2009 after a few years as a support unit. With approximately 40 hectares of flat land and the balance easy rolling the choices are certainly there. Ideal as a support unit, most of the property is able to be cropped and mowed. Also attractive as a dairy goat conversion with slightly raised building platforms for housing barns and cut and carry easily possible. Dairy farms of this size are becoming increasingly rare to the market and as such the opportunities for first farm buyers are also diminishing. Production has increased from 43,000kg MS in 09-10 to 50,000kg MS 10-11 and this season the farm is on target to achieve 75,000kg MS. The construction of a feedpad adjacent to the milking shed has been a significant contributor to the increase. A Fonterra shareholding of 50,000 shares area available for sale with the property.
