Summer green - North Block

The North Block property offers quality grass production throughout the summer months. The current owners have utilised this property to balance the summer dry aspects of their larger operation, having the North Block has given them security to grow out maternal capital livestock in a dry season as well as add finishing capacity and remove the risk of selling store lambs into an oversupplied market.

With 20% being well drained flats and sown in high energy grass cultivars, no expense spared regarding fertility, and all paddocks flowing naturally to a central set of yards. This property is set up to perform, it would be well suited to an existing business like the vendors, looking to remove climatic risk from their operation, or a first farm for someone looking to get into the sheep and beef industry. A mutually benificial relationship with the neighbour allows for use of a good quality sheep and cattle yard giving it all the amenities of a scalable property.

We have both been impressed with this property, and feel that the North Block would be suited to any existing Wairarapa summer dry business, or a newcomer looking for consistent performance.
