Tidy dairy farm offered in Waitotara

Riverside Dairy Farm is a modern and productive unit with quality infrastructure.

A tidy and productive dairy farm in its ninth season at Waitotara is on the market.

Nestled on the southern side of the township, Riverside Dairy Farm is a tidy milking operation of about 209ha (subject to survey).

"It has an average three-year production of 214,278 kg/ms supplying Fonterra," Bayleys marketing agents Knud Bukholt and Mark Monckton say.

"The farm is supported by good quality infrastructure."

The dairy shed is a modern 50-bale rotary, supported by three homes and a cottage.

Numerous sheds and facilities, including the original woolshed, concrete silage bunkers and underpass traversing the Whanganui to New Plymouth railway line, all complement this well-managed property.

Access throughout the farm is provided by-high quality laneways and an all-weather farm track extending off Jackson Rd linking to Waiinu Beach Rd. Located in the Taranaki Regional Council catchment, the farm has a good balance of loam soils on flat contour in addition to an area of rolling Himatangi sands providing excellent wintering country.

It will be sold by tender closing on December 9.
