PGG Wrightson Real Estate are delighted to present this quality dairy opportunity in the highly respected South Otago farming locality of Kaihiku. Converted by our vendors in 2011, the 312.7824-hectare property benefits from the fertile Kaihiku soils the location is well known for, and in conjunction with a neighbouring 33-hectare lease property, peak milks 900 Jersey A1 & A2 cows, supplying Mataura Valley Milk.
An emphasis on quality and best practice is evident throughout the property, producing a very attractive and well laid out dairy unit. The dairy infrastructure will impress, with a fully equipped 54-bail rotary located in the centre of the property, a recent Herd Homes wintering set-up, excellent effluent management, and a near-new calf rearing facility with Lely auto calf feeder. The contour is predominantly flat, with a network of well-formed lanes leading to consistent size paddocks, each with 2 troughs and good shelter. Soil fertility and regrassing has seen a consistent approach also, making the best of these well-regarded soils. Other improvements include four homes, numerous support buildings and sheds, cattle yards, and large silage bunker, - all presented in very good order.
The property is currently operated as a dairy platform, as well as wintering all mixed age cows and in-calf heifers. Presented in very good heart, this is a genuine opportunity to step into what is a quality operation and a credit to our vendors. Inspection is highly recommended.
