START-UP DAIRY FARM
Located in the Mahoe district, this 65 hectare dairy farm provides a great opportunity for a young couple looking to start on their farm ownership path or conversely someone wishing to wind down but stay in the industry for a few more seasons with an easy little operation to run.
Being predominately flat to gentle rolling contour the farm has good race access to the 37 paddocks which are all serviced with pressurised water from a stream source.
Calving around 130 cows production last seasons 40,903 kg milk solids with cows wintered on farm and calves grazed until May.
Milking is a breeze through a superb five year old 20 aside herringbone cowshed with Dairymaster plant and also with a brand new in-shed feed system installed this year. There is also an excellent new set of cattle yards and loadout next to the cowshed with other outbuildings for implement storage and calf rearing.
The two bedroom home is set in a sheltered mature garden setting and has had some modernisation and refurbishment carried out in recent years.
Overall this is a very tidy and well setup and relatively easy to manage dairy operation for new owner not requiring a larger scale farm. However with the recent addition of the in-shed feed system, production levels will be increased significantly from the past levels.
Open Days Thursday 7th and 21st November 11am
