This particular farm has not changed owners frequently because of the lifestyle the farm offers especially if you have a young family.
The vendors are milking 140 Friesian cows at present, but also carry all stock on the property including 38 rising 2 year olds, 42 calves and 5 bulls, with no lease block for wintering so this will tell you the soil types and quality of the farm and due credit to the vendors for their farming practices.
The property with 48 ha's of irrigation from 2 bores, stands out in the drier months of Dec, Jan & Feb with continual green pasture coverage.
The new ''American'' style barn has a rumpus room at the back for a children's area. The dairy has 21 sets of cups but the vendors are only using 18 as their dairy cows are too big to fit, with a smaller frame cow ie Jersey then you would fit 21.
The farm has a flat contour, with the main drainage drains responsibility of the ''Mobray Swamp Drainage Trust''.
All outbuildings are in a good working condition, with the barn capacity of 260 large round bales, good workshop.
