This 80 hectare dairy unit is just three kilometres north of Morrinsville and has all the right ingredients - great location, easy contour, rotary dairy and much more. This property may be purchased in its entirety - land, stock and plant - and with units this close to town seldom coming to the market a golden opportunity has arisen.
The contour is flat and gentle rolling with a two race system to all 63 paddocks.
The modern 30 bale rotary dairy sits nicely elevated at the front of the property with most of the support units nearby. The dairy has a large circular yard, good drafting facilities, auto in-shed meal and molasses feeding systems and ACR's.
Handy to the dairy is a 7 bay implement and calf rearing shed plus a workshop and storage shed along with two hay barns. There is a 12 tonne fert/PK bin with concrete floor and wooden sides.
Effluent is gravity from the dairy to a two pond effluent storage centre with a 20HP pump and stirrer feeding through 90mm plumbing to hydrants with around 30 hectares covered via a travelling irrigator.
Around 210 cows are calved with three-year production average of 92,763kgms. Calves are farmed off from 1st of December.
Supplements grown on farm include 8.5 hectares of maize and 10 hectares of chicory. Grass silage is made when a surplus of feed and 80 tonnes of PK fed in-shed this season.
A very good race system feeds to all paddocks with fencing being permanent and hedge on boundaries and 2-5 wire electric and hedges internally.
Water is sourced from two bores - the main being 57m (water at 30m) and covers the farm and dairy shed with a second bore servicing the dairy also. Water is reticulated around the farm through a new 40mm alkathene looped mainline and 25mm laterals with troughs in each paddock and two in some. There is a dosatron in-line dispenser.
The dwelling is a spacious modern five-bedroom brick home and features an office, two living areas, open plan dining and kitchen, five heat pumps and internal access double garaging plus a swimming pool.
In recent years around sixty London plane trees have been planted and much of the property has been planted out in new pasture species after cropping.
The well-bred herd is also for sale along with plant and machinery.
A well laid out farm, in a great location with excellent infrastructure and contour must appeal as a sound business decision.
