Eighteen hectares of maize is grown on farm with around 120 tonne of silage made each year. Purchased supplement is approximately 500 tonne PKE through a silo. Water is sourced from a the Ngarua stream which is pumped to the dairy and filtered through a UV system to provide good quality water for plant wash. Effluent is contained and spread over 51 hectares (more or less) via a travelling irrigator. The all-flat contour is mostly peat and clay over peat soils and fencing is a mix of 2-4 wire electric internally and on boundaries.
