Covering approximately 715 hectares of dairy platform and a further 56 hectares of support land in the sought-after Canterbury district, Cumberland Dairy is a large-scale, well-developed and high performing dairy operation. Currently peak milking 2,450 cows and on track to produce 955,000 kgMS in the 2025/26 season, the operation demonstrates strong performance and well-established systems. Comprising three modern dairy sheds, the operation includes an 80-bail rotary, a 54-bail rotary, and a 60-bail rotary all with a high level of automation. Each platform has a range of supporting infrastructure throughout, including calf rearing facilities, implement storage and workshop space. The property’s water is supplied via the MHV and BCI schemes, augmented by significant on-farm storage to take advantage of a consented high flow take from the Rangitata River. Irrigation is delivered through centre pivots, fixed grid, and sprinkler systems, servicing Ruapuna, Rakaia, and Eyre soils, with smaller areas of Ashburton and Rangitata soils. This diverse soil profile contributes to the property’s consistent and strong performance. The property is well laid out and highly functional, with well-formed metalled access, a strong laneway network, and good fencing supporting efficient stock movement across 111 main paddocks on the dairy units and 14 paddocks on the support block. Quality farm accommodation is well provided for across the three dairy units, comprising managers’ homes and a range of additional staff dwellings, delivering a practical and well-supported living arrangement across the operation. A genuine turnkey opportunity, Cumberland Dairy represents an impressive opportunity for investors or operators looking to expand within an in-demand dairy region.
