Ronga Road, Rai Valley, Marlborough

This impeccably managed and highly productive dairy farm encompasses a 125-hectare milking platform, with a significant portion undergoing a comprehensive cropping and re-grassing initiative. Presently, it boasts an impressive annual production of  167,605 kilograms of milksolids (4 year average). An additional 40 hectares approximately is designated for support or dry stock land. This presents a compelling opportunity for a discerning buyer to capitalize on the diligent efforts and considerable capital investment made by the current owners in developing this exceptionally well-appointed farm.

Key enhancements include a substantial concrete feed pad capable of accommodating 400-450 cows, complete with a full wash-down system leading to the new weeping wall septic system. The effluent pond, with a sizeable capacity of nearly 4.5 million litres, is seamlessly integrated into the irrigation system, providing strategic flexibility for emptying the pond over expansive areas of the farm simultaneously. The property also holds a resource consent for irrigating a considerable portion of the flats using the same K-line system, further extending its irrigation capabilities. The cow shed has undergone a comprehensive upgrade, transforming the 44-bale rotary shed with features such as in-bale auto teat spray, in-shed feeding, and various other improvements. Most laneways have been upgraded using materials from two on-site quarries, and the farm boasts an underpass beneath Ronga Road.

Accommodation options include two dwellings. The primary residence is a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom family home, recently renovated with new carpets and a modern kitchen. Across the farm, a versatile 2-bedroom cottage offers additional living space.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a top-tier, uncompromising dairy farm in a highly regarded and productive dairy region. Enjoy a quality lifestyle with proximity to the natural beauty of sounds, fishing, and hunting, all while being conveniently located between Nelson and Blenheim.
