Run the numbers

If you’ve been working towards owning your own dairy farm but assumed the numbers simply wouldn’t stack up, this one deserves your attention.

Just 12 minutes west of Kaikohe, this 97.0292 hectare (more or less) dairy unit offers approximately 90 hectares effective, proven production and an established operation that could suit an owner-operator, couple or sharemilker ready to take the next step. And importantly, the production is already there. The farm has averaged approximately 75,000kgMS over the past three seasons, with the last two seasons producing 78,137kgMS and 78,793kgMS. This isn’t a farm being marketed on what it might achieve one day. It is already doing it.

Currently run as a spring-calving operation with 183 cows at peak milk in 2025/26, the property is approximately 80% flat with the balance easy rolling. Around 65–70% of the soils are volcanic-series friable clays. The farm is divided into 54 paddocks, with well-maintained races making stock movement straightforward, while a reliable deep-spring water supply services the dairy and stock water. At the centre of the operation is a tidy 17-aside herringbone dairy with in-shed feeding, DeLaval plant and ice bank, supported by a circular yard capable of holding 200-plus cows. New rubber matting, smaXtec technology and an Easy Dairy drafting gate add further efficiency to the day-to-day running of the farm.

There is also a four-bay implement shed, good calf-rearing facilities, fertiliser storage and a comfortable three-bedroom home with a detached two-bay shed. But there is another part of this opportunity that makes it particularly interesting. The owner is open to selling the farm as a going concern, with the high-quality Jersey herd also available to purchase. Much of what you need is already here - the land, herd, infrastructure, technology and proven production.

This could be particularly compelling for someone who has spent years sharemilking, contract milking or managing farms and is now looking for a realistic pathway into ownership. Or perhaps you already own stock, have built equity and are searching for a farm you can operate yourselves without taking on the scale, staffing and complexity of a much larger unit.

Either way, don’t dismiss this one without running the numbers.
