We farm approximately 950 cows on the west coast of the Pouto Peninsula. Planned start of calving is the 10th of June. Herds are milked either full season OAD or OAD from Christmas. The cow shed is a modern, clean, tidy 60 bail rotary with ACR's and automatic drafting. We have a proud history of low somatic cell and grade free certificates.
The farm backs onto Ripiro beach with easy access to great fishing. The farm is predominantly a sandy loam soil so... no mud!
We are progressive farm owners involved in various community projects and enjoy exploring innovative solutions including diverse pasture species. The farm team has a combined 100+ years of farming experience and are supportive in sharing this knowledge, including encouraging ITO training.
