Hamilton city location with excellent contour
With an excellent location only minutes to Hamilton and mostly flat contour, this 141ha (more or less) dairy farm is a must see.
Currently milking approximately 300 cows through a 36-bail Dairy Tech internal rotary cow shed, this low input farm features an ideal rectangular shape with a central race to 33 paddocks, making it easy to manage for staff and owners alike.
Support buildings include a 4-bay implement shed with 3 phase power and a 4-bay calf shed with bobby calf load out. A feed pad and 250 tonne concrete silage bunker conveniently adjoin the dairy unit. An additional 30 tonne concrete bin may be used for fertiliser or feed storage. The effluent system includes a 4.5 million litre lined pond with pump and twin stirrers with the ability to irrigate over 35ha via a Kobra cannon. Water is supplied via two bores to troughs in all paddocks with 40mm main lines and both 32 and 25mm lateral lines. Most paddocks have two troughs and a Dosatron allows minerals to be dispensed to stock.
12ha of maize and 10ha of chicory is currently grown on farm which provides additional feed and is part of an annual re-grassing programme.
A two-bedroom dwelling with one-bedroom sleepout and double garage plus an extra one-bedroom self-contained unit with carport provide suitable accommodation for staff.
Being close to the city, this farm is in an excellent location for convenient access to supplies, services and schooling.
Vendors have other projects to get on with and are motivated for action.
