We are located at Rakaia milking 1400 Frisian cows with a cropping farm and beef finishing unit run along the side of the dairy. The dairy shed is a 60 bail westfalia shed with ACR, auto drafting, GEA cow collars for heat dection and rumination.
Winter milking 1000 cows with 600 inside and the rest on grass and feed pad, all dry stock is run on farm.
We fully feed the cows with TMR plus grass to achieve the highest out put as well as maintaining a health cow. Working with the best people in the industry to do this, all cows are hoof trimmed yearly at dry off through a riley built hoof chute.
