PGG Wrightson is proud to present this exceptional property to the market. Owned and farmed by the same family for nearly 100 years, this is a rare opportunity for a keen young farmer and their family to take over a well-established operation.
Located in the renowned Hinuera/Te Poi district, this property spans just under 70 hectares (more or less) and operates as a smaller dairy unit. It's an ideal starting point for a young farmer looking to begin their dairy farming career in a prime location, close to towns and schools. The property also offers potential for dairy support and maize cropping.
Currently run as a 220-cow dairy farm with approximately eight hectares of maize cropping, there is also an eight-hectare lease block currently integrated into the dairy platform. The 220 cows are milked through a 20 ASHB shed with in-shed feeders, with effluent collected in a pond and irrigated out to the farm via a travelling irrigator. Other buildings include a 6-bay implement shed, a 4-bay calf shed, and two hay barns. The home, featuring three bedrooms, has two log burners with insulation and is conveniently located near the dairy shed.
The land contour is predominantly flat to easy with a small balance in steeper sidlings. Included in the farm is a cut-and-carry block across the road, which is consistently cropped with maize and annual grass balage and used as supplements for the dairy herd. Young stock are grazed off-site. The farm has been religiously fertilised, and the pastures are in excellent condition, making this a turnkey operation for the new owners.
