Perfect dairy package near Whangarei

After nearly 20 years of ownership, the vendors have made the decision to retire from farming due to health reasons. Having previously farmed in the Waikato, they chose this property for its productive volcanic soils and reliable high rainfall, two factors that have consistently underpinned the farm's performance. Located just 20 minutes from Whangarei, this well-established dairy unit combines strong production, ease of management, and additional income streams, making it an attractive opportunity for both progressive dairy farmers and investors.

Milking approximately 270 cows, the farm produced around 115,000 kgMS last season, reflecting the capability of the fertile soils and well-developed infrastructure. The system is supported with yearling replacements grazed on farm, while two-year-old replacements are grazed off, keeping the milking platform focused on production.

Ease of operation has always been central to the farm system. Supporting infrastructure includes a 20-aside herringbone dairy with in-shed feeding, complemented by a stand-off pad, supplement pad, and covered feed bin, allowing efficient feeding and management through the seasons.

There is also excellent shedding infrastructure, providing ample space for calf rearing, machinery, and farm operations. Accommodation is well catered for with a quality north-facing main home, along with a second dwelling currently rented, providing either additional income or staff accommodation.

Further strengthening the farm's income profile is the harvesting of volcanic rock from the property, returning approximately $85,000 annually.

With the vendors now retiring, they are happy to offer the farm as a going concern, presenting buyers with the option of purchasing the herd and farm plant to allow a seamless transition and continuity of the existing operation. This is a proven dairy unit in a sought-after location, offering production, practicality, and additional income.
