Dairy farm – Vendor serious, wants a sale, at this price its already a bargain.

LAND
166 acres of prime dairy and feed producing country with 50 acres of 30ft deep alluvial riverflats and a full 1 kilometre of Hastings River deep-water frontage. How much better can it really get?

WATER
Fronting the Hastings River with a 61 Megalitre irrigation licence included delivering water via 4 inch underground piping drawn from the (deep-water) river via a 68HP diesel Fiat engine to a Monsoon travelling irrigator with no less than 9 hydrant stations around the property.

INCOME PRODUCING
If you do the work you can run 150 breeders, if not the property will still support 85 breeders without lifting a hand. If you’re not into cattle you could lease the land and earn about $15,000pa and the cows will keep the grass down. If you run a dairy farm, the vendor advises it will produce $40,000 per month gross at the current (2014) milk prices and a milking contract could be arranged. If you prefer to grow feed – a regular fertilizer program will produce up to 600 round bails a year. The property will produce bails of kikuyu ($80), rye ($120) and Lucerne ($140)

INFRASTRUCTURE – ( Has not been an active dairy for 6 years, requires a vat and rubbers will need to be replaced )
There is a 10 aside Herringbone dairy, sheds, barns, stockyards, gravity troughs, good fencing, 14000 gallon cement tank, 2 x 5000 gallon poly tanks and loads of irrigation installed.

It has been well kept, better than many others around, it’s sturdy and it has 4 bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom, power, water etc as you would expect. It is close to facilities and well positioned to view the property but there is an even better spot a little further up the hill behind that has great views and would make an ideal pad for a new home leaving this home an option for visitors or a property manager. If you don’t wish to live onsite perhaps you could sim
