This superb and highly productive dairy operation offers an impressive 125-hectare (more or less) milking platform, with a large portion recently undergoing an extensive cropping and or re-grassing program. The farm has achieved an outstanding average annual production of 170,070 kg milksolids over the past three years - a testament to its efficiency and the investment made by the current owners.
In addition to the milking platform, approximately 40 hectares of support/dry stock land is included offering mulple future options. The vendors also now lease a 80-hectare block, currently used for maize and their winter runoff. This lease could potentially be transferred to the purchaser, providing valuable additional scale and flexibility.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a discerning buyer to step into a meticulously developed farming enterprise with significant infrastructure already in place.
