Scale dairy unit with carbon, hunting and fishing

The sale of Kaweka Dairy Limited provides a fantastic opportunity to acquire scale with potential to continue lifting production beyond the 632,000kgMS peak.

Located approximately 50 kilometres west of Hastings, with a titled area of 656 hectares including an approximate grazing area of 450 hectares.

This diversified, low cost operation boasts a 350 hectare consent to irrigate, cut and carry lucerne stands, as well as a 400 cow feed yard and composting barn. Consented to milk 1,600 cows with a winter milk contract to supply 1,000kgMS per day. The autumn and spring calving herds benefit from free draining soils of mainly flat and easy contour with excellent races.

A 60 bail rotary is set up for the large high producing Friesian cows, with cup removers, in shed feeding, and the latest cell sense, Wetit teat spray and Protrack drafting technology. Other farm improvements include a large calf rearing complex, four large feed silos, four hay barns and various supporting implement sheds.

The 59 hectares of mainly Pinus radiata planted sidelings registered in the Emissions Trading Scheme also provide great cashflow.

This operation has an achievable upside to push beyond the targeted 700,000kgMS which will suit both the owner/operator as well as the equity partnership/syndicated buyers.

This one has it all - good scale, infrastructure, potential, contour, diversification and great irrigation consents all in a great environment for hunting and trout fishing. A must view for the discerning dairy investor.
