Performance, Presentation and Compliance - 202ha

Deadline Sale 4pm, Fri 8 Dec 2017 (unless sold prior)

When a dairy farm is offered to the market with the Synlait "Lead With Pride" Gold Plus level of achievement, prospective purchasers can be confident that compliance in all required matters have been addressed and applied. 'Sakura' is 202ha (181ha platform) and holds all the cards, with two centre pivots supported by K-line and low-cost irrigation water supplied from a shared intake from the Rakaia River into a 9ha on-farm storage pond. This water allows production levels of around 315,000kgMS per annum from about 650 cows, milked through a 50-bail rotary shed with milk cooled by a new snap chiller. Effluent is stored in a 27-day pond.

The property includes a large, modern four-bedroom homestead, two staff homes plus support buildings - all very tidy and well-maintained. Inspection of this high-performing dairy farm will impress.
