2646 State Highway 4, Owhango, Ruapehu, Waikato

This easy contoured 86.82 ha dairy farm is in prime Owhango dairy country in the central North Island. The land is of a very rolling contour with Owhango Loam soil types that are fertile and drain well. This farm is milking 250 cows through a 22-ASHB shed, with an in-shed feed system and automatic cup removers, producing approx. 85,000 kgMS per year with the support of a neighbouring 20 ha lease. There is good support infrastructure here, with a 4-bay pole shed at the cow shed, underpass under State Highway 4, pumice for lanes and a very good spring water system from the top end of the farm that is gravity feed to all paddocks and buildings. The house is a comfortable 3-bedroom weatherboard home that has had renovations, double glazing and insulation added. Summer rainfall is one of the major wins at this location, with an average of 1700mm of rain per year giving it the ability to grow grass when other districts are struggling. Information booklet available on request.
