Premium Opiki property - prime soils - 76 ha
Long regarded as having some of the best soils in the Manawatū, the Opiki region is second to none when it comes to productive capability. Located in the heart of Opiki, 156 Campbell Road is an exceptional 76-hectare property that stands out for both its scale and versatility. The land features predominantly Opiki complex and Makerua peaty loam soil types – highly prized for their fertility and performance. These soils are locally used to grow a variety of vegetable, fodder, and cash crops, as well as for dairy production, support grazing, and livestock finishing. The property’s potential is only limited by your preferred farming system. Currently, the land is used for supplement production, supporting a large-scale dairy operation. For the 2025 season, the entire property was planted in maize and has since been sown down in a new permanent rye-clover pasture, giving the next owner a great head start with fresh, high-performing pasture species. Until 2022, the property operated successfully as a dairy farm, consistently producing in excess of 85,000 kg of milk solids (MS). All the infrastructure and resource consents remain in place (subject to confirmation from Horizons Regional Council), providing a seamless transition for a return to dairying or diversification. Key improvements include: •A 24 ASHB milking shed •Three excellent implement and calf-rearing sheds •Bark-based stand-off pad •Excellent central laneway system •Reliable bore water supply •Three-bedroom home Tucked away at the end of a quiet no-exit road and just 15 minutes south of Palmerston North, this is a rare opportunity in a tightly held area. Land of this quality, location, and flexibility is seldom available – a gilt-edged opportunity for those seeking ease of management and maximum production potential. This is a must-see for serious buyers.
